This was my first Airbnb experience and I must say it was a great one! Unfortunately, I was not able to meet Marek and his wife, but my boyfriend and I were still taken care of. The apartment is just as described so there were no surprises. I was pleasantly surprised by how quiet the neighborhood was at night. The garden in the back was lovely and we would have used it more if it weren't so rainy during our stay. The apartment was in a great location as well, being a block away from the C train and a few steps away from a grocery store at the end of the block. There were also a bunch of cute restaurants, bars, and bakeries in the area as well. We loved coming back to relax at our apartment after a long day of activity. We would definitely stay at Marek's the next time we are in NYC.
