I had a great stay in Kristiana's apartment.
Although I didn't meet the host herself, her flatmate Mikey was more than accommodating. She recommended local attractions and eateries to me. We even went for dinner together during my stay, and watched a movie - which was quite nice, esp. since I was travelling alone. Kristiana was in contact with me a few days prior to my arrival - there was good communication between us, and she supplied me with any information I requested, phone numbers, etc.

The room itself was just perfect for my stay - plenty of space, and shelf room if needed; the bed was really comfy also! A towel was provided.

I loved the Washington Heights area. This was my first stay in the city, and I really got a feel for the area. There are some good places to eat scattered around - Coral Diner, Margot's, Carrot Top Bakery; and the apartment isn't far at all from the 157th & 168st subway stops. I also managed to fit in a trip to a local hairdressers, and nail salon! I felt safe in the area.

This was my first AirBnB experience, and I was very pleased with it. I would recommend Kristina's room, if you are looking for somewhere to stay in the Washington Heights area.
