My girlfriend and I stayed in Ayesha's apartment in June. Ayesha was a great host, always available through text and phone and she left us fruits, eggs and bread.
however when it comes to her place we experienced some difficulties. The apartment itself was not clean, it was dust everywhere! the mirror in the living room was full of dust,the floor was dirty even not vacuumed before our arrival and we did it by yourself which I think it is not acceptable when a host asks for cleaning fee!! also be noted that there is no place for putting your cloth and personal items, even not a hanger or drawer! it worth to mention that the host used one of the corner at the living room as a storage which was not very pleasant.
Other problem which we had was, claiming 4 floors to reach to the apartment after a long walk in manhattan!! I know the host can't do anything about it but I believe it should be mentioned in the description that the building does not have lift.
