Alisha is a very welcoming person. Her apartment is well situated. However the appartement was very dirty, even if Alisha says a cleaning lady comes, we found lipstick marks on glasses and rotten milk in others. The bed sinks in the middle and the couch is hard to sit on as it slides. We had to call her loads just to get towels and plates for two people, she came after two days. We went to NYC at an off peak period so the price was discounted but wouldn't recommend staying there for full price. We had to have takeout because it was very hard to cook there as it was lacking pans. Overall, we weren't spending much time there so it was okay, but it's a shame these factors negatively impacted our stay.
