We stayed at Shawn's place for four nights.
When we arrived we noticed a strong smell of smoke. we wrote Shawn and he immediately responded. He apologized and offered us a partial refund which was nice.
So if you are sensitive to cigarettes or smoke it can be a problem.
The communication with Shawn was easy and quick.
The apartment has a great location near the Chelsea market, Highline and a 7 minute walk to the subway.
we also really enjoyed the view from the windows at night.
If your looking for a basic apartment and not planning on eating in (very small and basic kitchen, no dinning table) this is a good choice.
Unfortunately the apartment wasn't properly cleaned to our standards (or what we expected for a 120 dollar cleaning fee).
