Pete's place is clean, comfortable, and luxurious, and it felt like home, only better. I concur with the other reviewer who thought the apartment is even prettier than the pictures. The beds are exceptionally comfortable, the sheets and towels are first rate, the rooms are decorated with an eye toward luxury, simplicity, and beauty. Pete is an experienced, respectful, perfect host. He gave us two sets of keys and a book with an overview of the apartment and menus from area restaurants. He adjusted our check in and check out times according to our flight schedule, even when we arrived in NYC via red eye. He was responsive throughout the process. While we were there we had a little problem with a window, and he fixed it immediately and let us know how to avoid the issue in the future. We felt centrally located -- the trains are only a few blocks away, and there are great restaurants and shops nearby too. It was fantastic having a space like this. We were in town for a wedding, and other family members stayed in a deluxe hotel. They paid substantially more for a significantly smaller, one-room space. We felt like we were staying with family -- family with great taste and the thoughtfulness to provide Meyer cleaning products, closet space, and wooden hangers, no less. If you are feeling at all "iffy" about the Airbinb experience, I can assure you that Pete is someone you can trust, and his apartment may be the best deal in the city. The system works because of people like Pete.
