My girlfriend and I stayed here for 5 nights and 6 days. It was my girlfriend's first time visiting New York City.
The location could not be any better ! You are about a 3 minute walk from the L train and an 8 minute walk from Union Square. And you can get anywhere from Union Square.
Our flight arrived early and Mattan was able to accommodate an early check in for us.
He was gone most of the time so we had the apartment to ourselves for most of the day.
The room (and apartment in general) was clean, warm, and our bed was comfortable. After coming home from being out sightseeing all day, it was nice coming back to a clean place.
The water pressure in the shower is great. It can get very hot too.
We had to check out by 10am but our flight was not until 5pm so Mattan let us keep our bags in the apartment while we went out to shop and came back to pick them up before heading to the airport.
For the price, the place is hard to beat. It was both mine and my girlfriends first time using Airbnb. And I would probably recommend this place to others visiting the city.
