Michael is a wonderful host. I appreciated the detail posted about the apartment at the AirBnB site that answered all my questions in advance. I also appreciated information about the neighbourhood posted by Michael at www.thriftaholics.com. Communications were timely and thorough, and Michael provided usernames and passwords to two sites from which to purchase theatre tickets at a discount. On the day of our arrival, Michael was waiting on the sidewalk to greet us and gave us a good orientation on the apartment. He even went out of his way to come to the apartment to reset the TV after I inadvertently pressed a wrong button on the remote. The apartment's location is great - just a few blocks to the 50th Street subway, 10 minutes to Times Square, 20 minutes to Central Park and lots of eateries and mini-marts in the area.
