First let me start by saying that Ethan is probably one of the nicest hosts I've ever had. He was an outstanding communicator and always answered me within minutes if I had a question.
His airbnb itself was perfect - spotless, comfortable and stylish. The beds are so comfy, and having a washer and dryer was fantastic. The street outside is typical NYC hustle and bustle during the day, but by night was extremely quiet. (Since the bedrooms are in the back, you really never hear any noise, day or night.)
You are within walking distance to the best park in town, as well as the Botanical Gardens and museum. There is a good bodega a block up the road, and many other good stores up on Washington Ave. (The only downside to the bodega next door is that the people working there did not always wear masks so I didn't shop there.) Cheryl's Soul Food just two doors away is great, and delivery from any restaurant or store is available to your door.
Thanks so much, Ethan! Loved your place and hope to use it again in the near future!
