This was my first Airbnb experience. I met Anthony at his apartment and was shown the room and the facilities, and given a key. We chatted briefly, but I had to run for an appointment, which had brought me to the city.

The room was clean and comfortable, with easily accessible wifi. The location was convenient to the downtown area and the various ground transportation terminals (Grand Central, Port Authority).

The noise from the street was a little loud, especially with the window partially open for the a/c. It is NYC after all, so I was not concerned. And, the room was quite cool, on a very hot and humid day. The apartment itself was quiet, and I did not even see anyone for the remainder of my one-night stay.

I will likely have to visit the city again, and would certainly stay here if it is available.
