Do not bother, your host will give instructions by text - not a single word in the how to get in field - about a “lockbox” on “stairs” then give a code, change it, give an aptmt no, then change it. When you ask are the stairs inside or outside ? Outside door open, are the stairs near the aptmt? After 3 hours past checkin and having to call airbnb and waste the day you likely are trying to visit and enjoy NYC, you’ll finally be told “I was in a meeting” and get a photo which simply could have been in the listing. When I asked for a credit to account for the burden, the host was shocked and declined. I in turn declined to stay, if this is so terribly handled, I would not feel safe staying. If you want to work with a host whose time “in a meeting” is far more important than your simply getting what you paid for and have no ability to check in for 3+ hours, has no respect for you and expects your full payment for the privilege, enjoy your stay with her.
