My boyfriend and I stayed at Gary's apartment for 8 days and absolutely loved the place. The apartment was exactly as it was described on airbnb and we could not fault it. Great location, close to the Metro, great restaurants, laundry mat across the road and so close to Bleeker St. Gary was a gracious host - easy to communicate with and there were no problems meeting us so late in the evening during check in. As most reviewers have stated it is noisy but hey that's NYC - we were out and about during the day so only encountered the noise in the morning and when we came home late in the evening. Please don't let the noise deter you from staying at Gary's place. I've used airbnb on 3 occasions and Gary's place is by far the best out of the three. Would gladly book Gary's place again if we get chance to visit NYC again.
