My stay here was bittersweet, bitter as in this is not Manhattan it’s Harlem, the outside of the building is very ugly if I had seen pics I would never book, the apt is not newly renovated it’s old and it was messy, there was always trash at the door like the host was too lazy to go to the trash chute, no clean dishes on some days, no privacy not even when you inside your private room, because the room doesn’t have a lock only a door, I’m still trying to figure out why the host keep asking me why u lock yourself in the room as if I’m not entitled to my own privacy.
The host makes these loud outbursts all the time just singing loudly, at least 3 mornings his outbursts wakes me up so annoying I get that it’s your house but ppl is here, i was even on the phone and my friend was like who is that I felt embarrassed. The host was a bit too flirty but once I told him don’t do that he respected my wishes and was professional, I must add he can be a little aggressive at time but always catch himself and apologize, I ask him what was his name and he told me go look at my Airbnb and I was just like are u serious, I really thought that was very unnecessary and rude, but he was also helpful and kind, he gave me a metro card which was nice of him and let me borrow his charger he is a kind person but the place not that nice or well kept, it’s definitely get what u pay for type of place, it’s just a place to crash if u on a budget, I honestly book this place because I only read the first 3 review if I had seen all of them which I did after I got there I would have never book, just saying, I’m just the type of person who makes the best out of any experience and mind my business
