House was beautiful and art was colorful and inviting. Great location.
Cons: There’s no real TV in the house. They have one 17 inch Computer monitor that you can watch Netflix or Hulu in the living room. Not the best picture and no cable. If you’re there for more than 2 days it’s a bit annoying.
The sofa bed in the LR is extremely uncomfortable with hard lumps on the very thin mattress. My back killed. The bed in the bedroom is ok but there could be better quality mattress.
I was excited to see On-site Laundry that was until the sign said: “for owner use only”. This was really cheap. I’ve been too dozens of Airbnbs and that was just a great accommodation to have. This house rental was not cheap so we thought at the bare least, we should not have to take dirty clothes home.
The visitor policy was a extremely strict. I can understand no parties or overnight guests. But the policy goes further completely restricting any guests outside those on the reservation. Even going so far to remind us that live camera is at the entrance and any. footage of a guest results in immediate cancellation of our stay. This was really over the top. It was my bday and my husband was staying w friends in the financial district and wanted to meet up for lunch in Harlem and see our house. Embarrassed to say he could not!!
Cleaning requirements. Cleaning fee was attached to the reservation as w most Airbnbs yet we were required to leave the house in pristine shape upon leaving. Then why are we paying a cleaning fee???? We did as asked but it was kind of over the top.
Honestly, for the same amount of money we could have stayed in a hotel with ease and more amenities. Next time we know.
