Julia is a great host! This was my first Airbnb experience & it couldn't have been more pleasant. She responds quickly to messages & is very detailed in her house manual. It was very easy to check in & out, the apartment was clean and very close to public transportation. It's also just a 25 min walk to Central Park. My boyfriend & I stayed there for week & it was perfect! Just a tiny little note to anyone who stays here & plans to sleep in: I think there are kids running around above you so you'll clearly hear their footsteps for a short time in the late morning. It would usually happen around 10:30-11 on weekdays. Thankfully my boyfriend is a heavy sleeper & it didn't bother him at all but it woke me up a couple times. I wasn't bothered at all but I thought that it would be helpful for anyone to k ow. Other than that it's the perfect place to get the NY experience & not be in midtown. I would absolutely stay here again!
