Alex was a great host and made the whole process of checking in and out very smooth and easy for us. The apartment is located literally 10 mins away from Columbia University and very close to the subway some good food options, lot of convenience stores and a 10 min walk away from Central Park on one side and Riverside park and Hudson on the other. The apartment was very clear has been well maintained and for the size that you expect in apartments in New York City the space has been very well managed across the 2 bedrooms and the living room that also has a sofa bed. Internet was very reliable and fast (Over 300 MB/s consistently) and TV with all channels. Kitchen is relatively small given the space constraints so plan for it accordingly. Overall a good experience that met or exceeded all our expectations.
