I (20 year old daughter) stayed there for a month while trying to get settled in NY. And well…I have very mixed feelings.
The location is great, it’s 5 minutes away from the train station and a lot of other stores/pubs.
The bathroom was clean, but the rest of the house honestly was not that much. It’s not super dirty but it’s just not really clean and tidy either.
Yes, Ana can be a very nice host! In the beginning, she gave me advice, and she even cooked for me one evening …but her mood can change very quickly.
If she doesn’t understand what you are trying to tell her or things simply don’t immediately go her way (because of the language barrier) she gets very annoyed/ mad at you even raises her voice, then holds grudges so your stay gets uncomfortable.
I think it’s a decent stay if you’re a short-term tourist who looks for a cheap good-located Airbnb to only sleep
But anything longer like a month, especially in the room I was staying in is just not the best choice I’m sorry.
