Oh wow. I just got home after a 5 day biz trip and I am still on cloud nine with my decision to stay at Jess’.
The location is super central and safe and quiet (enough! It’s New York, so...). The bedroom has lots of natural light and space for my luggage/clothes. And the bedding super comfy etc. The apt space is super light and bright and just feels nice to the senses. The kitchen had everything I needed for my quick meals (which I prefer to do when traveling as much as possible - just makes my. It’d feel better) and Jess was insisting that I use her spices and olive oil etc . The espresso machine was so divine.
But the BEST part was meeting Jess.
I don’t believe that I have ever rented a room via air b n b so I was admittedly a little skeptical to do this - but this was to NYC so renting a place just for myself was unnecessary and spendy, so I decided to make the leap to rent a room.
Jess made me feel like a long time grade school friend who was in town for business. Never once did I feel like I was bothering her, nor did I feel like she was watching my like a hawk—. In fact it was the opposite. When I came home from my meetings if she was there, we chatted and then she was so gracious and quietly exited to retire to her room and “gave” me the place to myself.
And it’s a gorgeous apt! I must mention that the apt was super clean and everything about it was amazing.
I would totally stay with her again in a heartbeat.
