10/10 would recommend. The host is extremely kind and helpful. She was quick to respond and effectively communicated. We felt right at home and cared for. The place is in a safe neighborhood. About a 10 minute walk to the train station, and you can get everywhere in the 5 boroughs from there. There are also buses you can take, but we chose to walk because the neighborhood was cool and the people are kind. The Airbnb itself was clean, spacious, neat and homey. It has everything you need for a visit to the big apple. Good food nearby - check out de islands. Great & affordable Caribbean food.
