Ed and Bryon were the best! I have never had such a convenient check in as I did at their place. There was no guesswork and the process was very smooth. Also, I would say that their place is by far the cleanest Airbnb we've ever stayed at. The whole house was immaculate and the bathroom was very clean which can be really hard to find. Their cat is probably the most lively cat I have ever met my life! He was very playful and very sweet. We have animals at home so it actually made us really happy that he had an animal and it made us less homesick for ours. The room is exactly as described and very spacious, especially for Manhattan. The two bedrooms are right next-door to each other but you can't hear anything from the next bedroom. We also could not hear anything from the living room. So it was all quite sound proof and you don't have to worry about disturbing each other. The bathroom is located on the opposite side of the Airbnb. And as i said before it was immaculately clean! They provided amazing toiletries! And they have everything that you could think of. Which is so nice if you forget a thing or two when you travel. The neighborhood is quite noisy at night but that is to be expected for Manhattan! Also they provide you ear plugs so the noise level doesn't even matter. The bed was super comfy in the linens were very nice, they provide multiple towels for you (again this is nice, I've stayed where they only gave you one per person). One night they had friends over, they were quite respectful with the noise level and even offered us some food. They were very pleasant people to stay with and very easy to get along with. Overall this is probably one of the best Airbnb experiences I have ever had and if I am ever coming back to the East Village I definitely will stay with them. The neighborhood is a very lively place, with countless restaurants bars and a number of subway stations close by!
