Definitely a positive Air BnB experience! My previous bookings in NYC were not, so this was refreshing. The location and price are great. It's maybe a 5 minute walk to the L, super easy to get where you need to go.
Ivanna and Emmanuel were both super kind. They were easy to get ahold of (Ivanna answered all of my messages promptly before my stay), even providing their cell numbers if needed. My travel did not go as planned, but they were happy to accommodate my arrival. The way the place is set up, you must use a key for you room, and a key for the main apartment. No problem until at 3 in the morning I managed to lock myself out of both! Again, Emmanuel was super kind and forgiving.
They have a super sweet dog (she doesn't go in your room, just the main apartment area, so unless you are severely allergic should be no problem). She didn't bark at me once, but surprisingly she did bark when I knocked on the door at 3:00am! Smart dog!
The room was a generous size for the city, and it had an air conditioner (and it's own radiator for when that's needed). It may be a little noisy for some, but unless this is your first time staying in a NY apartment, you should know what to expect. It's the typical older no sound barrier building. I sleep better with city noise, so it was perfect. Also note this is a 4 story walk up, I don't remember that in the description, but I may have overlooked it because it doesn't really matter to me. I know there are people that could just not do it.
The bed was basically a pull out couch type frame. The mattress is thin, but there are no poking springs or anything. It was ok for a couple night, but I could see it being a little rough on the body after awhile. It worked great for me though!!
I had no issues getting into the bathroom. There are no other guests, just Ivanna and Emmanuel, so it was pretty easy. I didn't use the shower so I can't speak to water pressure, sorry.
Overall it was a great stay, and I will definitely check their place to see if it's open next time I need a room!
