I had such a wonderful experience staying at Alex's place in 2016 that when I planned to go back to NYC in 2018, I did not hesitate to book with Alex again. The room is clean and comfortable and the L train Montrose station is a short walk of less than five mins by foot. The shared bathroom is also very clean and there were no clashes at all with Alex and his wife. When I asked if I could check in early, he immediately agreed. Prior to my arrival, he gave me very clear and detailed instructions on how to access the apartment and even passed me his MetroCard so that I could ride the subway without having to pay for a new MetroCard and my rides on my first day were free, thanks to him! I could also do my laundry which was greatly appreciated. There was a kind offer to take me out for a meal but due to clashing schedules, we were not able to arrange a time suitable for all but still, it was very kind and generous of him and his wife. On my last day, he even helped me with my very heavy luggage and ensured that I was safely in the car together with my luggage before he left. He was also very concerned for my safety and asked me to notify him when I arrived at the airport and when I reached home after my flight. Alex's place is now my go-to place should I ever head to NYC.
