The apartment is beautiful, in a safe neighborhood and very close to the metro station, which is very convenient. Unfortunately when we arrived, the apartment was not cleaned and half of the lights did not work. I understand it was not the host’s fault and he was very helpful and communicative. He resolved the issue the very next day. However, we had to wash all the sheets so we could sleep, in a laundry mat that was next to the apartment and that took the rest of our evening. It was a slight inconvenience since we had planned our trip and we were not expected to walk in to an un cleaned apartment and all the towels and sheets on the floor. Besides that, everything was great. I would definitely stay there again and I am recommending this place to my friends who are going to visit NYC.
