A prime location in the heart of
Chelsea - so close to many amazing restaurants and cute boutiques! The space itself was fine - relatively clean although we did have to remove a few bugs from the bathroom. Our main complaint is that the heat was controlled by the building. Unfortunately for us it was an unseasonably warm weekend in NYC for the end of December and thus the apartment was unbearably warm. We opened the windows to help but there was very little airflow due to scaffolding outside the building. Neither of us got any sleep 🥺 To Jorge’s credit - he explained it was a law that made it illegal for a building owner in NYC to turn off the heat last November so there was not much he could do to help us. It was just extremely uncomfortable.
The only other thing that I would make sure anyone booking this apartment knows is that upon booking - the address registered with Airbnb is not the actual address of the unit. We made our parking arrangements based on the address registered with Airbnb which ended up being wrong. Following check-in Jorge let us know the address on file with Airbnb is for a former apartment of his. This was fine except that our parking arrangements were then far less helpful.
I would also add there was an element discomfort we had knowing we were staying in an Airbnb that…Airbnb didn’t actually know existed!
