Christa and Zach are amazing hosts. I've used airbnb a few times before but this experience was one of the best. They are truly kind and genuine and willing to help you out with whatever you need! Christa made sure that the temperature in my room was good and that I was comfortable at all times. They had the most amazing specialty bagels that they offered to me in the mornings and even got me cake the day I left!
Their home is extremely clean and tastefully decorated. You get a very warm and welcoming vibe as soon as you walk in. Their dogs Ollie and Cookie are so cute and friendly as well.
The location is a little far from midtown Manhattan (around 40 mins on the 2 train, the 5 train is faster but doesn't come as often). If you bring something to read for the ride it goes by quite quickly. I never had any trouble getting back at night on the metro but past midnight i would usually just cab home which cost anywhere from $20-$30 depending where in Manhattan I was.
I really don't think there is a better place to stay for the price that you pay. I definitely would recommend Christa and Zach's place!
