All in all, I had a great stay!
Pros:
- updated, clean and beautiful unit, including kitchen and bathroom.
- spacious (for NYC) and great location.
- Two key pads (front gate and front door) made for easy check in and I felt safe by myself.
- Richard was very kind and addressed the two issues I had right away.
Cons:
- Richard and his family live in the house above the unit and the noise transfer was an issue for me - footfalls, kitchen noises, etc. seemed loud. I suggest he add area rugs to his house, above the unit, to help with this.
- The bed was a bit too firm and the pillows a bit too flat for my personal preference.
Again, it's one of the nicer airbnb's I've stayed in, and if he addressed the two "cons" above, it would be the best. Thank you, Richard!
