This is an artist's home and if you treat it with respect it can be your home, too, for whatever time you need to be away during an Airbnb stay in New York City.
This neighborhood is full of the best and worst people (perhaps in all of America) because it's very diverse - almost like staying in Queens but much closer to bug tourist spots. If you're comfortable with diversity you will find this to be the best vacation of your life, in the best home away from home.
As EB White once said "here is New York."
