Hurriyet was super responsive and gave clear check in instructions. Check-in was through a lock box and was very simple.
The location is just a block or two away from the Gates Ave J train stop, and was super easy to get to Manhattan. The room is as pictured and was well furnished. The large TV was nice and the A/C was amazing for the summer. I had great roommates during my stay and everyone was respectful and kept the bathroom and public spaces clean. No one comes to clean the place during the stay, so you are responsible of keeping everything clean.
To be completely transparent, I saw a roach on the stairs when I came in. I chose to ignore it since it was dead already, but it was there the entire time of my stay. I ended up leaving the place early because I saw a roach in my bedroom on the third night. I tried to kill it with the Raid spray but it scurried away. I completely understand that roaches are very common in NYC, however I am admittedly more sensitive to bugs and roaches. I just want to share this information if anyone else is also sensitive to these things, as this was a deal breaker for me.
Overall, this stay is a great deal, especially for longer stays. The in-unit washer and dryer was especially helpful and it was nice to have access to a full kitchen. I felt relatively safe in this Airbnb as every room/entrance had a lock, and I was able to lock my bedroom while I was out all day.
