Tracy is a great host. She showed me around when I got in. All the little touches are great. There is a small fridge in the kitchen where you can put things. This was extremely handy. There are towels/toiletries, pen/paper/map/Mirrors/hangers/tv/radio/drawers/lamps etc in the bedroom. Everything you’d get in a hotel. I don’t usually stay in Airbnb so this was a pleasant surprise. The bed and pillow are super we comfy so I slept well. There is also an air con in the room.
Tracy allowed me to use the kitchen which was nice. As a tea addict it meant I can make a cup of tea when I like rather than going to Starbucks. The shower pressure is great.
Location is perfect. The place is about 5-7 mins walk to grand central/Madison garden & about 10-20 mins walk to Times Square if you know which way to go. Initially I made it long for myself by going round in circles but actually it’s a long straight road down. Tons of shops/cafes/supermarket nearby.
Only downs- there isn’t much natural light into the room as window is small. The bedroom sink pressure is low so takes forever to use. It’s a building with a lot of students & on two nights there were a lot of shouting & music outside my window as people partied in their balcony. Luckily I took earplugs which I’d advise. There was also loud water gushing noises coming from somewhere at night. I thought it was air con or tap but never did find out what it was- again earplugs come in handy. The bedroom door is difficult to open and close, it’s really stiff & needs a bit of force
Overall great experience & I loved the comfy room and cute kitchen. I would stay again!
