The pictures are exactly what you're getting in the apartment. It was a very clean & minimalistic place, perfect for what my family & I needed (a place to sleep). Lily and Tim we're quick to respond and very nice to let us check in early. Also, the place was nice & toasty for us when we arrived which was a plus. The only issue others may have is that the apartment building smelled like cigarette smoke when we entered, but the apartment itself did not. It did not bother my family & I too much & it's not the host's fault for the apartment building smell. Overall, I would stay here again if I'm in New York.
