The hosts were very quick to respond, their home is very clean. During our stay the host was home almost every time we were there, not an issue as they are very quiet and considerate, just to note. You only have to walk up one flight of stairs which is very nice. It’s really not too far from the a few different subway stops. One thing I wish I was aware of before visiting is that it’s wall to wall with a bar that is open very late and the patrons seemed to also hang out outside the bar well after hours. The window has an AC unit in it so there is not a lot of protection from sound. As someone who has stayed in quiet a few lower cost Airbnbs in NYC, I would say you can absolutely find a place where you will not have to try to fall asleep with a club right next to you. This may not bother some people but it did make it difficult for me to sleep while on this trip. Everything else about this Airbnb is pretty much what you’d expect!
