With a family of upper and lower respiratory tract challenges, smell of the place is a crucial factor for us to select a place to stay. As we enter the AirBnB we immediately felt that the place is well maintained as we do not smell any molds or bad smell which is an indicate of poor housekeeping. Kitchen condition is the second most important part of the house as it provides indication of the cleanliness of the place. The cupboard, cutleries and kitchen equipment are very clean giving you a feel that food can be safely prepared. The rest of the house is simply adorable. The decoration and space is great and provides a great feel of home. List of necessities to allow a comfortable stay is available so that we do not need to even buy additional items. The neighborhood is quiet and makes you feel secured even if you walk close to midnight. For a first time stay in an AirBnb, I can say that this stay gave us a very good impression. Despite the challenge of bringing heavy luggage through the stairs given the place is in the second floor is not a hindrance for us to choose this place again if given the same opportunity. As a matter of fact as we moved to our second AirBnB in Los Angeles we could not stop saying we miss our New York stay.
