I stayed here for a month with my wife and we could not have been happier with our experience. Lisa was such a wonderful host. She was kind, fun, communicative, and FAST with anything that came up. Having her upstairs made us feel so much more comfortable than other places we've stayed which were managed by companies.
The apartment is exactly how it looks in the photos and even more comfortable. The whole apartment is new and felt well cared for. It's very clean. The linens and towels were much better than I'd expect in an AirBnB. The kitchen was fully-stocked with nice new pots and pans which were great for cooking. We didn't cook every night but it wouldn't have been any trouble if we did. There was coffee, tea, and a kettle already there when we arrived which was pleasant to see after a long journey.
I was working remotely during our stay and using the internet pretty much constantly and didn't have a single interruption the whole month. There is a router inside the apartment and the wifi speed is very fast. There's a TV with a fire stick already set up with Netflix and HBO Max which was also nice. We never had an issue with noise whether coming from outside or neighbors.
The location of the apartment was very convenient. It's a 2-minute walk to one express subway line and maybe a 4-minute walk to another one. Between the two of them, they'll get you pretty much anywhere in Manhattan. The neighborhood itself is a bit dirty and might not be for everyone but with the subway lines being so close it's super easy to get in and out if that's what you choose. It wasn't a problem for us.
All in all, Lisa and this apartment made our trip such an enjoyable one. The apartment was our little, stress-free home away from home to relax in after a long day (or night) doing stuff all over NYC.
