Our stay at Stefan's place was terrific. Firstly, Stefan was flexible about our check-in time which was awesome as we had an earlier flight. The pictures are pretty spot on - a very clean, spacious, and organized apartment. Stefan was a great host in providing a binder with tons of resource information. Though we did not meet him in person, he or his friend nearby were easy to reach and were relatively quick to get back to us. And although we did hear some occasional traffic noise, it was still quiet enough to get some good rest on a comfy bed.

The location was definitely prime - close to the subways we needed. The Essex Market about a block up was great to get our groceries.

We did have some trouble with the gas stove as the gas company was doing some maintenance at the time. But Stefan was helpful into looking into that information and though things were out of his control, he had provided us with a hot plate to use in the meantime, which worked out just fine.

I'm really glad we stumbled upon this airbnb, as it gave us the opportunity to explore NYC all while living like true locals. We would definitely do it again.

Thanks for having us! :)
