The apartment was very clean and as described. I didn’t spend any time there other than to sleep. I would not stay there again due to noise and bathroom problems, details below.
The host forgot to send me check-in instructions, but was otherwise communicative and easy to reach and responded quickly. The apartment is located over a bar on a busy avenue. The noise was overwhelming, much more than an average NYC apartment (I lived there in various neighborhoods for almost 20 y). Also, the curtain cannot be drawn while the AC is running, so there was a lot of light coming in at night too. The shower has a problem where the cold water cuts out and just burning hot water comes out every 30 seconds. The toilet also needs to be fixed. The host did try to come and fix it but unfortunately the problem continued.
