Carmelo is one of the warmest, kindest hosts I've had in my experiences with AirBnB. We decided to visit New York last minute and he greeted us at the door to show us around. He speaks Spanish, so it helps to know even a little bit. Tip: The ground floor into his building is public so you can come and go as you wish. I would have liked a lockbox to put the key in but other than that is was a good price for a last minute trip!
