This is definitely one of my favorite stays in NY. the host Joris was so welcoming, welcomed me when i arrived and even helped me with all my luggage downstairs to the room. gave me a tour of the space and even had a cheat sheet of the area :) The space was beautiful, clean and spacious. Equipped with two beds which was great when my sister came to visit for a weekend. the stove was brand new and all new pots and pans. i got to break it in ;) He had no issue with my ESA dog. The location is by two different trains both 8 min away which is great exercise :) laundromat right by the airbnb too. one downside was since it was basement level you dont get natural sunlight but it wasnt too big of an issue for me. There was a couple ants but Joris offered ant repellent. Throughout my stay, Joris was super helpful and responsive whenever i needed something. Hes super friendly! friendly neighbors too! i really felt like a local/neighbor here! almost like family! I look forward to staying again in the future :)
