First time ever staying in an Airbnb with the host living in as well and I was a little nervous how it would go as everybody likes a bit of privacy on holiday. My worries we're totally unfounded as Luke is one of the friendliest and most welcoming people it's been my pleasure to meet whilst travelling. Communicative, open and discreet. There if you need something and giving you space if you don't.
The apartment is beautifully decorated with Luke's"s stunning and colourful art and we were the envy of many colleagues after they had seen the gray, midtown hotel rooms they were staying in that seem the norm. The location is deliciously placed near the cooling tranquility of Battery park and the water and is a great spot to chill in after what can be a hot and gritty day in Summery Midtown.
Stone Street just around the corner is full of great bars and restaurants and the subway up north is very conveniently located.
Go for the apartment, stay for Luke. You won't be disappointed.
