It was okay, I hate writing bad reviews however I was not the only person who paid to stay here so it is not fair for me not to give the full thought of both of us.
Overall, I think if you need the full apartment space this may be worth it but there's probably better options. And if you don't NEED the kitchen, then there is definitely better options for nightly rates.
The GOOD:
the walk to the L isn't bad it's about a 10 minute walk ( i think it was .5 miles). The commute to Manhattan is easy once you get on and it's about an hour to the word trade center for reference. The host was pretty quick as far as responding and depending on how it is booked there is an option for early check in/check out or luggage drop off which was AMAZING to have.
There is a laundromat, Walgreens, McDonalds, dollar general , and other good stores within a mile which was convenient.
Full kitchen with some dishes, pots, and pans.
The not so good...
Within the first nights there we found multiple cockroaches. The host did offer to help with the one that had gotten into a hole in the wall that we weren't able to get to and they brought raid which was appreciated. The next morning we found a couple more and then I found I think two more within the rest of our stay. We were told after the first one that he has precautions set in place to make sure this doesn't happen and that an exterminator would be there just to check it out the following day. Then I got a message saying it would be about 5 days before one could come and then on the day they were supposed to come they never did. I can't really say who's fault that is because I know that's partially out of the hosts control. A few days before checking out I started to smell gas (propane) near the gas stove despite having not used it except for the first night which was days before this. I contacted the host and he was quick to install a carbon monoxide detector (although that is a different type of gas so i am not really sure that would have done anything.) the neighbors were doing construction so there is a chance it could have been coming from there however that was on the opposite side of the apartment and I didn't smell it over there so I honestly can't say where it was coming from other than I smelt it til the day I left so I tried to spend as little time in the apartment as possible after that and kept the windows open when I was there.
