Loved this home! I highly recommend renting from Althea and I'm honored to be Althea's first airbnb guest and the opportunity to stay here for my first time with airbnb. This place is so beautiful, comfortable, and accommodating. We had many requirements, needed a location close to my brothers' apartment and two bedrooms to also accommodate my dad. Two, much less three bedrooms are difficult to find and this completely met our needs at a price within our budget. The pictures here describe the home, but honestly - they don't do it justice, they can't describe the pleasant feel and decor. The layout is also so interesting and quaint - everything fits.

The beds were extremely comfortable, after busy days of walking all over NY - her home was a sanctuary of rest and we slept so well, the AC units keeping us cool. Linens were plentiful and very nice. The neighborhood is also nice and quiet, no crazy street sounds typically associated with NY, we enjoyed sleeping in after many late nights out.

I was especially impressed with the kitchen appliances/utensils provided - we were able to make a full breakfast for 6 for father's day. Many dishes, tools, we had everything we needed!

This was a lovely brownstone in a very pleasant neighborhood. We had our car and though parking can be challenging (street sweeping times of no parking), we always found a spot. This was our first trip with our car and no parking ticket souvenir.

Althea is a most gracious and wonderful host. She was so friendly and accommodating. She had a fruit basket, NY info waiting for us, and many other personal touches throughout. She really made us all feel so welcomed in her home and that really added to our experience. We really connected over our interests and her generosity is unparalleled, I hope we can stay in touch!

I was nervous with my first time using airbnb; however, this experience was so great, I hope I'm not too spoiled staying here first! I feel like we really lucked out with getting this reservation.
