The apartment is beautiful. In a great location. It’s a great place to stay I really loved this apartment. However the host is completely useless and his ‘friends’ who were the ones the guests and I had contact with could be very rude. A cleaning lady comes once a week and the apartment is very clean despite one or two dead cockroaches in the kitchen cupboards but that’s New York. I enjoyed my stay here as my roommates were lovely! But like I said, don’t expect anything from the host, he failed to provide basic necessities such as toilet paper and soap which for the price of the stay is pretty appalling. He also lacks communication. You’re basically renting out your own room in a lovely apartment, don’t expect any kind of Homestay experience.
