We unfortunately had a poor experience at Nadia’s Airbnb. The pillows were sweat stained, the mattress had stains all over it, we were provided only one very old towel for two guests, the rug in front of the bed spilled dirt all over the floor when we picked it up, and the apartment in general smelled intensely of moth balls. The mattress was so soft that it sagged nearly to the bed frame, and there was a broken bookshelf in the bedroom that left us baffled as to why it was still there. It is unlikely that Airbnbs stricter Covid cleaning practices are being adhered to.
The photos in the listing do not tell the whole story. You enter into a micro kitchen that is hard to use, and then the rest of the apartment is essentially a hallway with a door to the bedroom and bathroom. There is no common space or living room. There is so little dish storage in the kitchen that there were dishes placed in the bedroom. NYC apartments are small, but this place has an exceptionally poor layout.
We left the place on the first night rather than being miserable for the next 3 days. Nadia and Myles offered us a full refund for the inconvenience of having to find a new place to stay at 11pm after a long flight. We appreciated the full refund, but ultimately cannot recommend this Airbnb.
