This was the best airbnb I could have wished for!
Johvana gave me a warm welcome when I arrived at the apartment and explained everything about the house and neighborhood. The room is perfect, really clean, and is equipped with AC. It was also nice to have the ability to cook my own meals.
Hanging out on the sofa with Johvana and Julie (other roommate) while watching tv was always nice after a hard day of work.
The neighborhood is awesome! There are lots of nice places to eat, drink, and to have some good coffee. There are community gardens. The bus which takes you to Chinatown - Battery Park stops right in front of the house. The coolest park (Tompkins) is only one block away, where you can read your book in the sun while listening to live music or watching people play hockey, basketbal or baseball.
I worked in Long Island so I had to take the metro and LIRR everyday which was fine and a good commute. The metrostop is only 13 minutes away, nice to wake up in the mornings.
In short, I really had the full New York experience thanks to Johvana and her apartment! Hope to return soon!
