Simon’s place was exactly as described. It was clean, spacious and just what we had hoped for - it was our first experience of AirB&B and we were very pleased. Particularly pleased with cleanliness and the fact it was an airy apartment. Nice touch with the snacks left as after a long flight from London we needed something before venturing out to the supermarket - Whole Foods best by the way. Easy access to Metro, which is good value at $2.75 for any length journey. Empire State Building and Statue of Liberty visit highlights for us. Would definitely come back to New York and would definitely stay at Simon’s place again. Sorry we never met you Simon, but your place was great. Paul and Jackie
