The host is responsive, answers quickly, the apt is close to the subway, it was a decent size for 4 of us. We didn’t have an issue with noise from the bar downstairs, just normal city noises. Now, the cons, the apt is up 3 flights of extremely steep stairs, it’s almost like a ladder but I’m assuming it’s because the building is old. The carpet is questionable, stains as soon as you open the door but my biggest complaint was the junk in every drawer and in the closets, just thrown in and the refrigerator may or may not be clean but it looks horrible, just dirty. I was glad we didn’t need to use it any. If you’re doing a quick NYC trip, you don’t plan on cooking, you just need a crash pad, for the price, this place is fine but I wouldn’t want to stay any length of time here. It seemed clean in the bathroom and the beds were fine, but it you have any mobility issues, this isn’t a place for you.
