As a first-time Airbnb-er I had my share of doubts initially of how this would go, but it turned out to be great!

Lolita shared access info and instructions very clearly and in good time, so the stay was very smooth. The room and common spaces were always offered very clean. The easy access to subway means getting to rest of NYC is very convenient as well -- so location is great for commutes. The area also feels fairly safe. If I come back to NYC again, I will definitely consider staying at Lolita's place.
