Yocasta’s home served our needs perfectly for a friends trip to NYC. It was reasonably located/priced, spacious and clean. There are two subway locations within a five min walk and adequate front door security at all times. The apartment is located in a decent part of town, but the walk back from some of the subway entrances can be pretty sketchy at night. Yocasta went above and beyond in making sure we were taken care of during our entire stay and really added value to our experience. She was quick to reply to any of my questions, was easy to work with and provided good recommendations during our entire stay. This was my first time staying in an Airbnb in which the owner actually lived there when it wasn’t rented. That being said, we had complete privacy and this in no way took away from our experience. However, it would have been nice to have this detail in the listing description. I would recommend Yocasta’s home to groups looking for spacious and affordable accommodations who don’t mind taking a subway/ride to anything worth visiting in the city.
