Danie's place was perfect! My boyfriend and I stayed at his place for a full week and it was honestly ideal. Tbh, when I first saw the pictures and location, I wasn't sure how it would be, but honestly the pictures do not do it justice AT ALL! The room was soooo cute and cozy and the entire apartment was incredibly clean and decorated so nicely -- it felt so homey and made me feel like I was really living in NYC. I was a little worried about space, too, but the room was totally fine! It's expectedly small (because it's NYC...duh haha), but it felt plenty spacious enough for my bf and I! And Im notttt a light packer hahaha. The bed was really comfy, too, which I feel like is pretty rare for an Airbnb.
Prior to this trip, I had been to NYC about 8 times or so and always stayed in the theatre district -- I'm sooooo glad we decided to stay at Danie's place because Chinatown was an awesome location! It felt like a super authentic NYC experience and it was easily accessible to everything and there were a ton of things close by. I LOVED getting fresh cream bread and taro buns at the bakery right downstairs and the besttt latte ever from Dreamers right around the corner.
On top of the place being super awesome, Danie was really great and chill to deal with, too! We asked him for a ton of recommendations about local food spots, etc., and everything he recommended was fire. Not only was he super awesome, but the others we met at the apartment were super cool, too! If we had more time, it would have been awesome to grab a beer with them or something.
All in all, next time we're in NYC, I will definitely book the room in Danie's spot again! Such a good value and awesome little spot for our trip.
