Pedro was quick and responsive when I first booked, but I was quickly put into the care of his friend who hosted my stay. Cristina was very accommodating while also exuding that no-nonsense NY’er attitude. She trained me on the doors and was kind enough to let me stash my bag on the day of my train departure.
This AirBnB rewards the maturer traveler who doesn’t need much with the best the W. Village/Chelsea has to offer. You should be able to trek up 5 floors, follow directions, and anticipate foot movements. The room felt more than ample for a single person and very quiet for a great night sleep. But if you need a TV or lots of outlets, I’d recommend looking elsewhere.
The apartment puts you within walking distance of cute bistros, cafes, bakeries, boutiques, high line, public transit, and a killer bodega with an expansive counter menu if you’re on a budget. I had a fantastic stay and would rebook again. Thanks Pedro and Cristina!
