Me and my friend stayed 4 nights and this apartment and it was great for what we needed, a beautiful and warm place to sleep in and close to a subway station to be able to go off and wander around NYC.
The only issue we had was at the end, after we left the host called me and asked what had happened to their table. I was surprised and didn’t understand what she meant, she told me that the small glass table in the bedroom had a crack and that we needed to pay for it. When I explained to my friend what the host was saying (on the phone) she said that she had seen the crack since we got there and that it even had books and other things on top of it (as if to cover the crack) and thought nothing else of it.
The hosts asked us to pay for the glass since they claim the table was fine before our stay, but since neither my friend or I did anything to break the table we don’t agree with paying for it.
I want to believe that this is just a misunderstanding and not done with any bad intentions, so I would recommend staying at this apartment, just as long as you check that everything is ok and report any issues as soon as you check in.
