I moved from SF to NYC and decided to stay in an Airbnb while looking for long term lease in BK - I'd say Ploy's place, and how helpful she and her husband are provides an amazing buffer for my transition!
Highlights of the month-long stay:
1. The location is hard to beat: 2 min walk to G/L train; 2 min to grocery store. Close to McCarren Park and many many bars and restaurants!
2. Ploy and her husband are EXTREMELY responsive: whenever I texted her for either a question out of her obligation as a host, or questions about the apartment. They responded literally in second. Her husband also came on a weekly basis to fix things and do cleaning - that's very nice of them!
On my check-out day, I asked if I could move out later than the designated time and Ploy took the effort to coordinate with the new guest so that I could stay for a few more hours!
If I have to be picky:
1. This apartment is definitely not big - but this is NYC (and I'm still learning!) If you move here from any other city and crave for space - you might need to mentally prepare for that.
2. My room is next to the street - so to be honest it's loud and I woke up in the middle of the night by the noise.
Neither 1 or 2 is related to the host or their efforts - just think it's worth calling out as trivial caveats.
Generally - it's a great stay! Thanks Ploy!
