The good notes:
1. Whole kitchen

3. A couple stores and corner marts
4. Provided clean and numerous towels
Neutral Notes:

2. Most stores and restaurants closed by 7pm
3. Not a lot of outlets options in bedroom
4. Closet space very small
5. Trashcan not sufficient for 6 day stay. Super small ones only provided
6. Option of 2 twins or 1 king is; the beds pushed together to create the king with a noticeable crease in middle for no comfort.
8. Takes about 45 minutes subway ride or an hour cab ride to get to manhattan/time square
The Bad notes:
1. only 1 roll of toilet paper left for us on a 6 day stay
2. Can’t sleep too well:
- You’re basically living in the basement and the walls are very thin. You can hear them walking upstairs at 1am.
- Weird knockings against the wall, Possible plumbing knocks but very loud and messes up sleeping/resting experience.
3. Weird request from owner:
- Told me I had to, “keep the front of the door clean of leaves”. Not sure why I was to be responsible for something outside the residence
4. No privacy: owner felt like he can come in whenever he wanted. So I felt like I had to keep an extra eye on some of my belongings.
5. Toilet bowl cover broken when we arrived
6. When requested extra items, the item was left outside upstairs
7. No ADA approved for people with disabilities. The stairs are steep down to entrance of airBNB
