This was one of the best AirBnbs my family has ever stayed in, and I have stayed in quite a few. It is extremely clean and very beautifully decorated. It feels much, much bigger than it is and never felt too crowded for the 5 of us. Metta even labeled everything to help us find what we needed. Communication was excellent during our entire stay and she greeted us at the apartment when we arrived. Metta even introduced us to fire bubbles! The East Village location could not have been more perfect. We usually walked the 5 minutes to Union Square to catch the subway but the Westbound L train is literally just across the street if it’s rainy (like it was one day for us) or bitter cold or if you want to go to the West Village or if you’re too lazy to walk over to Union Square. The kids loved staying up in the cozy lofts and sliding down the pole. It’s surprisingly roomy up there but if you’re tall like my son, expect to bump your head a couple of times. The bathroom is heavenly— heated, self-flushing toilet and a gorgeous rain shower. Metta had plenty of towels and hooks for us, and according to my daughter, her hair never looked better after using the organic shampoo and conditioner that’s there. If you’re still debating whether or not to book this place, just do it. You won’t regret it. The “guide” to the place is very long and detailed and can seem overwhelming, but don’t let it deter you. Metta just wants to make sure you are well informed and comfortable. She’ll also ask a lot of questions, but I personally appreciated the attentiveness and care. You’ll love her when you meet her. There’s nothing I can say bad about the her or the place! I would definitely stay there again.
