We stayed at Jeffrey's apartment for 2.5 weeks in April and it was truly our home away from home.
Jeffrey is AMAZING. When we arrived, he stayed to have a chat with us and show us how everything in the apartment worked and identified any potential issues we might have had (we had none - but was very assuring to know that if we did we knew how to fix it). He was super super accommodating - we even were greeted with muffins and bagels just incase we were hungry when we arrived. So unexpected but so lovely.
Jeffrey's apartment is just awesome. We absolutely loved it. It's spacious and super homely. He has the most amazing artwork and decor - just wow. It has everything you could need to comfortably enjoy your stay. We loved walking up to the markets and buying fresh ingredients to cook dinner on nights when we didn't feel like going out. Having Wifi was awesome also so we could keep in touch with family back home. And having access to a washer-dryer was a godsend to be able to wash all our clothes! You don't expect to be able to travel and have all your creature comforts, but Jeffrey's apartment truly delivered.
On top of Jeffrey's apartment being so incredibly chic and comfortable it is literally a block away from a major subway station and you can get pretty much anywhere from there. The neighbourhood is super friendly and very safe. We were always warmly greeted by people in the building and in the neighbouring apartments. It's right by Riverside Park and we really enjoyed walking 2 minutes up to the local Starbucks and then taking our coffees and books to the park to read. Loads of friendly squirrels to play with! There's so many awesome restaurants nearby, a 24hour pharmacy only a block walk away and a market that is huge that stocks pretty much everything you could ever want. There's a bank with ATM access a block away which was so convenient for us as tourists.
We've had some amazing experiences on Air Bnb but this by far surpasses as the best experience ever. Jeffrey is just incredible, his apartment is amazing and it really made our stay in New York super memorable. When we come back we'll be looking Jeffrey up and seeing if we can stay again we loved it so much.
A true gem of a stay on Airbnb. You won't be disappointed!!
