My wife and I had a great time staying at Tony's place in NYC and would happily recommend this house to others. The experience actually surpassed our expectations.
We loved the house itself, which is a beautiful, character-filled and historic brownstone just a stone's throw from the High Line in Chelsea. The Metro, Chelsea Markets, Whitney Museum, the Meatpacking District and lots of nice restaurants are nearby and easily accessible (short walking distance). The room was great (just as described in the ad), quiet, of a larger-than-average size and had a comfortable bed. The bathroom was also nice and clean, and had a great big shower head which felt quite luxurious after a day's site-seeing!
We particularly liked meeting Tony and family (including Emmy the cat!). They were very nice and attentive hosts, who also provided great information and recommendations for things to do and places to visit, including great bakeries and coffee shops in the area. All administrative aspects associated with our booking were quick and hassle-free too.
Bottom line - we'd stay here again on future visits to NYC!
