Overall, had a positive experience at Asil’s place. The apt was conveniently-located, the host was very responsive and communicative, there were helpful check-in instructions, and there were thoughtful elements like a sturdy umbrella available for the sudden rainstorms that occur in May. The only drawbacks were that the Wi-Fi was spotty and some other small oversights. There were 2 days with internet outages during my stay, which made it difficult to work remotely from the apartment. Asil was very responsive once I notified of the outages, but it did force me to scramble to find a place to work before meetings. The other issue was the trash from the last Airbnbers was not taken out before I arrived and there as some expired shelf goods in the cupboard. Not that big of a deal, but something I took note of. Overall, if you’re planning to be mostly out in the city during your stay in NYC, this is a good spot to make your home base.
