It was a gem to find Laura's Airbnb as a last-minute booking after finding out my original accommodations were canceled. Even worse, my partner and I ended up getting sick the day before the trip and our request to cancel was denied. We stuck it through but still had a great time here. Luckily, the home was supplied with all the essentials for our little stay vacation. It was close to grocery store and drug store, and easily accessible to the subway. The house was spacious and beautifully furnished with amazing art pieces.
Unfortunately, there are some areas of improvement needed. Mostly, communication and coordination were lacking as Laura was slow to respond to my messages. For check in, there was very little directions given. Some of the rooms were dark because either the lights didn't work or I couldn't figure out how to turn them on. There was no air conditioning but the fans were sufficient for the weather in October. Beware if you are a light sleeper, you can easily hear the upstair neighbor's loud footsteps.
For check out, you are expected to take out the trash, vacuum, run the dishwasher and wash the dishes. Also, supplies such as coffee, coffee filters, and toilet paper were asked to be refilled if exhausted. These are reasonable requests but surprising to me when there is a three hundred dollar cleaning cost. Overall, a great place to stay with a few nuances.
