Things I liked:
-impeccable location - truly! Central Park is right across the street, the Subway stations you'll likely use for touristy locations are either a 4 min walk or 10 min walk away. Lyfts have no problem finding the place, either. If you're planning to stay mainly in Manhattan, this place is great.
-clean and thoughtful - the apartment is definitely clean, and Mark kindly leaves 6 bottles of water in the fridge, which I appreciated. The kitchen, though we didn't use it, seems fully stocked.
-Doordash - they'll call you and you just go down to pick it up. Pretty convenient! Tip - don't call for anything that is in an extended region. No one wants to come this far.
Things you should know! I wasn't affected by most of the below, but hopefully these help your consideration of this place.
1. The building reeks of weed which is legal in NYC, and there's a slim woman who is very angry and hostile about this apartment being an Airbnb. She may say some unkind things to you.
2. The building has no elevator and requires you to hoist up you and your luggage 15 steps (stairs), so if you have mobile issues, this is something to be aware of.
3. No more than two people should stay here. It's a small space, and the loft is unusable (there's no ladder or way to use it).
4. The building has a central heating system, which means you can't change the temperature of your apartment. This was not an issue for us since the whole week was over 70 degrees - I cannot speak to colder winter months.
5. The floors, especially near the bed, are creaky. So if you're a light sleeper and the person staying with you uses the bathroom at night, you will be woken up. The walls are also very thin, so you can hear everything next to you, above you, and outside. And the mattress is veryyyy soft. Could be an issue for those with spine issues!
6. Unlike the current listing, there is no washer in the unit, so bring enough clothes or pay for the one in the building :)
7. Bring your own toiletries. There is no body wash/soap bar appropriate for your body, and the shampoo and conditioner provided is just a travel size. Would also recommend bringing lotion because the hand soap is also very drying.
Overall, I enjoyed my stay. I hope the detailed descriptions above can be of help to those searching for a place!
