My girlfriend and I had the honor of being Jen's first guests! We're moving to NYC from California, and since our lease was beginning in Jan instead of December, we had to rush to find a place to stay for the month. The first two airbnb's we found were awful (both had roaches, one smelled like a urinal...) and we were desperate for something clean and comfortable. When we got into Jen's place we literally yelled out in relief. The space is warm, clean, and thoughtfully put together, especially if you're into holistic practices like yoga and meditation. There is a little workout area, some choice books, a meditation mat, and a very comfy couch to relax on. We were never cold, and felt good walking around barefoot.
Since we stayed during the very intense omicron wave, we ended up cooking almost every day. The kitchen is exceptional; great dishwasher, hot water, fully equipped, and well organized. We always had what we needed and were comfortable while doing it.
There is parking on site, but you have to drive through a very narrow alleyway to get to it. I have a Subaru Outback, not the smallest car out there, so it was a pretty tight fit coming in and out. If you have anything bigger than that it might not be usable, but there is parking on the side street nearby. This location is also pretty industrial, and while Forest Park nearby is great, there isn't much to walk to, and the street can get pretty noisy at times. Luckily the bedroom is in the back and it's very comfortable to sleep there, the living room definitely gets the New York energy, if you know what I mean. The area is convenient with a car though, with Trader Joe's, CVS, and other necessities just 5 minutes away.
Overall I highly recommend Jen's airbnb for a long term stay, especially those who want to have access to the city without being in the thick of it. Jen was a lovely host, who helped us with all of our needs and was super generous with her time. A great value that's safe, clean, and comfy.
