Good:
- responsive and accommodating host: I asked for luggage drop off and the host arranged this for us. Whenever there were questions/ issues, the host responded quickly.
- GREAT location: close to bus and metro stops. Many restaurants and stores nearby.
- good security!
- aesthetic/ spacious home
Can improve
- slow WiFi: this was inconvenient for me bc I had online classes. It worked OK in the living room, but basically no connection in the bedroom.
- upstairs had a party/gathering every weekend until like 12 am... I can hear every single step of upstairs. Also loud refrigerator.
- had a mouse incident - which again, I know it’s nyc but I didn’t expect a mouse to be INSIDE the apartment. Thankfully, the host resolved it right away with an exterminator, but I was still shocked and quite traumatized.
- cleanliness: it’s clean overall but I hope there were some cleaning supplies provided (vacuum/mops/wipes) since we were staying there for a month
- I wished the host gave us some basic information such as WiFi & where to throw away trash before we arrived. I had to ask when I arrived. It a small thing, but a little handbook at the Airbnb would have been nice.
