I booked Mrs Arlene's apartment for a 3-day stay in NYC to please my children, our stay ended up being a nightmare for our family. First we find handwritten notes (talking about children) on a wall in the apartment which made our children think that someone wants to hurt them. As a parent, we spent the stay reassuring our children. Second nightmare, after our check out, I receive an invoice of almost 800 usd from the host that we have to pay according to her, we have spoiled her chair. The water chair poured by our 4 year old child that we have to reimburse.
If you have children, I strongly advise you not to reserve this apartment at the risk of finding yourself in the same situation as us. As a parent, we expected to receive a little compassion from the host for what our children went through during our stay.
