This was our first time using Airbnb and we couldn't have picked a better host. when we walked into the apartment we felt like we had been there before just because it was exactly as the photos. Mustafa had provided breakfast cereals, milk, juice, bread, eggs etc for us, which was lovely. We didn't arrive until 9pm and Mustafa had waited for us and made sure we were settled before he left.
The area was quiet and we heard no noise during the evenings/night.
There are several shops nearby to stock up on provisions and the subway was a ten minute walk away where you could get a 7 train straight into Times Square, Manhattan or Grand Central station.
There was plenty of hot water for showers and the apartment was well heated. The kitchen was well equipped if you did want to make a meal, and had a toaster, kettle and microwave as well as the cooker.
The apartment was full of Mustafa's art work, which was great. His handmade copper bedside lamps were stunning. If he's not too busy ask him to show you his studio in the basement of his shop.
Lots of nice touches like tissues, toiletries and Apple TV and wifi, which the kids loved. I have no problem recommending this apartment and would definitely stay here again.
We had a late night flight on the day we left and Mustafa said we could leave our things in the apartment until we were ready to go which was really helpful.
Thanks for everything Mustafa you made our trip to the Big Apple a very enjoyable one. Your gift has pride of place on our kitchen wall.
