Gen had a very great location and it was a very nice neighborhood and surrounding. Many people think NY neighborhoods are dangerous but everyone minded their own business and didn’t bother us at all. Gen was good at communicating and fixing things when something was broke.
On the other hand, the house is cluttered with excess things and the smell is not good when you walk in. The shower drain was clogged and still clogged even after she fixed it. It’s very dark in there, so if you like natural light I would not suggest this.
Also, there is a pest problem. There are mice living in that apartment. I have seen one in the room I was staying in and you can hear the mice squealing and making noises in the common area. This is the reason we left immediately after we noticed this. Once we contacted Airbnb, Gen came and basically kicked us out late in the evening without giving us a chance to figure out a stay for the night.
To sum it up, location was great but the bathroom was filthy and there’s a pest problem.
