I had a fantastic time staying at Max's place while visiting my son (who attends Columbia). Max's communication was prompt and thorough; he let me drop off my bags early and even check in a bit early. I really appreciated his flexibility as my flight had gotten in that morning and I was eager to settle in. The apartment met all my needs -- the room I stayed in was big and airy, everything was kept spotless. It's a lovely neighborhood with great restaurants nearby, and the famous Absolute Bagels within walking distance! I look forward to staying again!
