I've stayed in a lot of airbnb places and this is among the best! Unlike many places, it's better than it looks in the photos. We were badly let down by another airbnb booking and found Neil's place last minute. He was very accommodating, getting us checked in on the same day we enquired about it. Everything was great! The apartment is big and very well equipped as this is a family home, not a rental apartment. Very comfy beds and excellent AC, an essential for summers in New York. The building is old style NY luxury, with a doorman and elevator. It's a great location, by Riverside Park and Columbia University. There are local shops and restaurants and a subway 2 minutes away. Neil made us feel very welcome and was available to answer questions through our stay. Would stay here again and recommend.
