Got transferred for work to New York City and needed to move within a month from the West Coast. I needed to find a long term rental and randomly came across Steven's posting for this apartment in the Upper West Side. Not quite sure about the location, I booked with Steven because of three reasons: 1) His responsiveness and willingness to answer my many questions 2) The beautiful decor of the apartment 3) He promised me they had YES Network and cable TV :) Overall this was SUCH a great experience and stay. Although I could go on forever about some of the reasons, I'll highlight a few below; -Air Conditioner: (There was a heat wave and getting into the apartment and turning on the AC with the remote control brought so much relief) There is also a great ceiling fan in the bedroom. -Quiet: The neighbors were all respectful and quiet. It is a back unit so was also quiet because of this. -Neighborhood - I got lucky here because I wasn't familar with the 80th block of Upper West Side. It was amazing. Great restauraunts and convenience stores all around. Close to a big museum and Central Park! Walked everywhere with a smile on my face. I commuted from Midtown East for work and felt like I was coming back to an oasis every day returning home. I also just found a more permanent apartment in the same neighborhood because I loved it so much. There is also a great laundry place near by that I did wash and fold at. They were great family owned business also! -The Hosts: Steven and his counterpart Alex were incredibly accomodating and gracious hosts. Alex helped me bring my bags up to the apartment (remember I just moved from cross country) and then again to the cab to my new apartment when I checked out. This was very helpful. Steven was readily available and gave me great advice on finding a long term apartment via text and phone. Above and beyond service. -HUGE TV: The TV in the living room was amazing and huge. I actually just went to the store and bought the same one yesterday and even texted Steven to ask how he mounted it to the wall. Of course he responded and gave me advice. SUPER HOST! Loved watching my Yankees every night on TV. -Desk Space - Great work area for people that need to work from home. Wifi is fast and adequate for business use. -Cleanliness and Comfort: the AirBNB was extremely clean and the bed was comfortable. The sheets and blankets are so comfortable like a hotel. Again, yes I asked Steven where he got them and then went to Bed Bath and Beyond and bought the same ones. All in all I would highly recommend this spot. The reason I wrote such a detailed review is because of how much I appreciated Steven being such a great host and I wanted others to know...
