Oscar and Oscar's apartment were just the best. Oscar's a great host: Very responsive to AirBnB messages (and in general), helpful, kind, and engaging. The apartment and the room were more than I expected: Very - and always - clean, modern, well-designed, and well-organized, making the space very fresh and very cozy. Oscar even added nice little hotel touches like body wash, shampoo, and conditioner dispensers in the bathroom; clean linens, a throw blanket, and interesting books in the bedroom; cute little writing implements on the desk. He just did such a great job of carefully considering a traveler's needs, then designing it in such a pleasing way with a touch of whimsy. Though I was out most of the time, amenities for cooking were also available - and they were excellent.
The area also has grown quite a bit. There are so many more great restaurants and the area is very 2SLGBTQ+ alive. Oscar's stated commitment to a safe homespace made it that much more special.
I used to live in Hell's Kitchen a number of years ago. I love my old neighbourhood AND I'm also familiar with the standard apartments in the area. Have to say... Oscar's place is above and beyond. I'd stay here again and again. ¡Muchisimas gracias de nuevo, Oscar!
