Our stay at Karl and Catherine was not only our first time in NY city, but also our very first airbnb experience...and it was great!The location is perfect: the neighborhood is very quiet - but not sketchy at all - and very well connected to Manhattan. The room and the bathroom are just as pictured in the add: spacious and comfortable.
Karl and Catherine are truly great hosts. Even though we asked them to stay at their place at the very last minute and we got there pretty late at night, they made us feel welcomed in every possible way!They are always available if you need them, but not intrusive at all!

In a nutshell: highly recommended!
