The space was immaculate. Very clean, very comfortable, and I'm a self proclaimed germaphobe. Everything was so nice I was a little afraid to mess it up. We ended up having a horrible experience at the airport that delayed our arrival by some hours and he was incredibly kind and patient with us and even rearranged his schedule for a later check in,after we had requested an early check-in! Ugh. I still feel bad about that, but he was so kind. We could not have asked for a better host!
The apartment is in Soho, so there are a TON of local bars, restaurants, shops and neighborhood grocery stores. Everything is walking distance. A few nights we were out late and felt totally safe in the area after dark. Most of the tourist sites are a reasonably short Lyft ride away or if you don't mind walking-which we didnt and is apparently what everyone in NY does too- there's a lot to do that's within a 30-45min walk. We were there for a work conference but it made the evenings a lot of fun!
The TV had Netflix and that was nice to wind down with a movie after a long day. The bed was great, I need my bed to be ultra soft and my partner needs it to be firm. This was perfectly in between! Neither of our backs hurt the next day. The shower head in the shower was probably the BEST thing of all! It's a rain shower and I felt like I was at a luxury spa! The only thing that might have helped us out a bit was to have a few extra bath towels. There were two bath towels, one for each, but we both have a lot of hair and after 4 days it was tricky. All in all I would highly recommend!
