The self check-in was straightforward and I had no problem checking in at all. The apartment is in a neighborhood that has a lot of great restaurants and it is very close to the subway. It did not take us too long to find street parking as well. Stella was very responsive during our stay and was able to address issues that we had in a timely manner. The shared living space was pretty clean but we were a bit disappointed in the cleanliness of the room. The space was tidy but the floor was dirty and we felt a bit uncomfortable walking around the room barefoot. Aside from the fact that the room did not meet our standards for cleanliness, Stella’s listing is a pretty affordable option for those looking to stay in NYC short-term.
