Helen and Richard have a delightful place. It’s tucked away—quite literally…do not be alarmed by the non-traditional route to their suite. It’s not bad at all, just unorthodox so just know the promised land is only a door away—in a boutique hotel and is The Quietest space I’ve never encountered in New York. It is an Oasis. The patio is lovely and a great place to have an evening cocktail or a meal even. They have absolutely exquisite tastes; no Ikea sectionals in this dope pad. Their couch is The Best Couch in the world. I’ve never seen anything like it. I’m going to get one. Kitchen is supremely functional. A gourmet cook could find everything they need. Me, I was quite content with the best boxed macaroni and cheese I’ve ever had—just one of the many thoughtful touches they so graciously provide. They put a lot of thought and effort into making your stay exceptional. By New York standards it’s quite roomy. It’s location is my favorite place to stay on The Island, in the heart of Midtown with major subway stops closely. Uptown, downtown equally accessible. Location is ideal. This is a can’t miss and that’s a beautiful thing for an Airbnb in New York. I’ve had a few that were not what they appeared in the listing. Buyer beware if you are lucky enough to have a chance to book theirs. I spent 3 weeks here and hate to go. I’ve been supremely comfortable and content. It has been if not The Best certainly one of the best Airbnb experiences I’ve had. Authentic and exquisite. Their communication is as good as it gets. Any restaurants they recommend are locks—they know their stuff. Did I mention I really loved this place? If you can find a better Airbnb in New York then our definitions of same differ because for me this is as good as it gets. Bravo Richard and Helen: you crushed it!
