Jose is a very kind and hospitable host.
I was due to arrive at his place at 2pm but due to my flight cancellation I didn’t arrive until 2:30 am the following day.
Jose was more than understanding and was more concerned that I arrived safely than what time it was, despite him having work that morning. He also carried my luggage up the four flights of stairs which was very kind.
Jose is a great communicator and offered me multiple in depth options for New Year’s Eve.
The apartment is situated in a safe neighbourhood. As a solo female I felt comfortable walking around.
It is approximately a 15 min walk to the subway, which doesn’t feel far at all even in the cold. The room is clean and the bed is very comfy.
I would recommend ear plugs as the bedroom has a window that faces the street. The apartment is close to a police station which is very safe, but can be quite noisey with sirens during the night. Ear plugs resolved this for me, and for NYC some noise is to be expected.
I didn’t use any of the amenities, but there is a large tv and comfortable lounge room to use.
The bathroom is heated and has nice warm towels waiting after your shower.
I would definitely come back to stay with Jose.
If you’re considering booking this airbnb, I would 100% recommend it.
Thank you Jose!
