This was our first experience with AirBnB and our first time sharing someone’s place. While I was a bit apprehensive about the sharing part, my husband and I are somewhat adventuresome travelers and are always looking for a good value. After our stay at George’s, we are totally sold on the AirBnB concept and upon returning home, we have told all our friends about our amazing host and wonderful experience.
George’s apartment is in the perfect location, just steps from a subway station and the Port Authority Bus Station, making transportation from any NYC airport very easy. It is also within 1-2 blocks of Times Square and all the theatres. His place is in an old tenement building, so while not a modern apartment, it oozes with charm and was very clean. “Our room” was rather small (big enough for a bed and an armoire), but then we really weren’t there much, so it wasn’t an issue and we were free to lounge in George’s living room whenever we wanted.
