In Sep/Oct 2013, I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Omri's apartment. It was the first time that I was using Airbnb, and was VERY apprehensive about travelling to The Big Apple. However, from the very beginning Omri was prompt in his replies and reassuring that my stay would be great, giving me helpful advice for getting to and from the airport. I arrived quite late in the evening and Omri was lovely in having some orange juice ready for my first morning. I was delighted to find the apartment as it is in the pictures- clean and comfortable and also the wifi worked great making it very easy to Skype family & friends. And the afternoon sun shinning through the window is glorious! I must also make mention that Omri's doormen- especially Olayemi (night doormen) were extremely helpful- being on my own, this was very reassuring especially when arriving late at night.
The apartment is in a superb location- (yes, definitely have the pizza from across the street (I still crave it a year later), also the deli a couple of doors down is great for breakfast and "Brother Jimmy's" is fantastic for Southern food and Cosmopolitans!). The apartment is not far from the subway and it's an easy walk to Empire State, Broadway, Times Square & Chelsea Timeline! Overall, I could not recommend Omri's apartment enough! Thanks, Omri for being a great host and helping to make my stay in NYC a dream come true! :)
