Our stay in New York was great! The space was the perfect size for 2 people and had a cute/modern feel to it. We were able to check in a couple hours early which was nice since our flight came in at 8am. Has all the necessities you need (for basic cooking, water pitcher with filter and if you’ve forgotten certain toiletries). There were many bars and a variety of restaurants within walking distance of this location. The neighborhood felt safe (we walked at night a handful of times) and accommodating.
Would definitely recommend this place, however, there were a few concerns that I had during our visit.
1. We had 1 towel each and just 1 hand towel for the entire stay. It was only upon leaving that I randomly checked the ottoman in the bedroom and found a few others. I see that others had the same concerns, however, this detail should be written in the listing so visitor after visitor doesn’t have to ask. 2. The grey blanket in the armoire was dirty and had white crusty stains on it. I would suggest replacing it - I was kind of grossed out and don’t know if a wash would suffice. 3. The grout in the bathroom needs to be redone as there were a handful of broken/missing pieces that could potentially be a safety hazard if not taken care of as soon as possible. 4. The water in the shower doesn’t drain properly and would fill up upon each use. 5. Unfortunately (outside of the owners control) people leave their trash on the second floor.
With some minor tweaks this is a 5-star stay no doubt! The host was super sweet and communicated in a timely manner. I wouldn’t let these concerns freak you out too much though, as I believe they can be addressed quickly without much hassle.
