We were looking for a place with a parking spot and close to public transit since we drove down to New York and had no intention of trying to fight traffic to visit downtown. Ashley's place fit the bill perfectly. Located just a 5 mins walk to several subway lines, it was super convenient and at no point did we feel unsafe walking through the neighbourhoods after a late night in Manhattan. Street parking was plentiful and easy to find right in front of her place.
Check in and check out were very easy, and Ashley is a very responsive host. We had a small leak coming from the ceiling in the bathroom and she was quick to resolve the problem.
The apartment itself was clean and comfortable, with plenty of space, and stayed nice and cool through some hot humid days in the city.
