Piero was extremely communicative and one of the best Airbnb hosts I have had yet. Very clear directions for check in and always responded to questions within minutes. The room was well equipped and very clean and comfortable. There is a fair amount of street noise in the two main bedrooms but that is often the case with inexpensive rooms in NYC. The rest of the apartment is very quiet. Good location to get wherever you need to get to in Manhattan. Overall a great host and a great apartment and highly recommended for travelers on a budget.
