Nick is an awesome host. He was extremely forthcoming and easy to talk to and was really good at establishing an atmosphere of mutual respect, which I find extremely important when sharing a place for a long time. He is friendly and available, while also respected a closed door. He also values cleanliness a lot, and keeps the place very clean. I stayed for several months during the Spring of 2022 and I thoroughly enjoyed it!
The apartment is quite large and while the room that I stayed in was small, it was big enough to include a large and comfy bed, a desk and chair an enough storage space for my needs. I had to do some work from home, and I was pleasantly surprised that the Wi-Fi in the apartment is very fast and stable. In addition, the living room and kitchen was available to use and Nick has an amazingly well-equipped kitchen that suited my every need. He also enjoys cooking (and is very good at it) and shared his cooking with me on several occasions.
The apartment is located in Washington Heights which is a vibrant neighbourhood with loads of amazing take-out and shopping opportunities. There are also several laundromats close by. As advertised, the room is quite noisy, but with a set of earplugs it was never a huge issue. It's also very close to the 1 and A trains which will take you all over Manhatten.
All in all an amazing place for shorter as well as longer stays such as mine. I couldn't have imagined a better host that Nick for my first time in NYC.
