This has been my first experience with Airbnb, and I have to say I am very satisfied.
Ali has always been an excellent host, both during the booking process and also during my stay. She always responded to my messages within a short time even when, before booking, I was only looking for some information; her availability and her kindness have always been praiseworthy.
The apartment is small (actually smaller than I imagined from the pictures) but fully equipped with all the amenities. I did not have to think about anything except to enjoy the holiday, because Ali left me the house with everything I needed for personal (towels, soaps, shampoo, etc.) and house care.
Talking about the location, you can not crave more: the apartment is in the heart of the west village, surrounded by an immense variety of cafes, restaurants and pubs, next to a supermarket and at a 2-minute walk from major subway lines in Manhattan (A, C, E, 1, 2, 3).
A special mention goes to house's cleanliness.
In few words: Ali's home is highly recommended for those who want to enjoy the true spirit of New York.
