ME is a wonderful Airbnb host and I would recommend her apartment to anyone. It is like a home from home, so much better than staying in a hotel - there is even a cat, Lulu, who is very friendly and affectionate. It is reasonably priced, conveniently located for the Upper West and Upper East sides and Central Park, and there is a subway station very close that will take you downtown so you can access just about anything really easily. ME provides a delicious breakfast every morning (she asks what you want in advance) and is very accommodating and generous at other times of the day and night. The bedroom is cosy, the bed is very comfortable, and the bathroom has a bath and a shower. It is air conditioned and very quiet during the day and the night, so sleeping off jet-lag isn't a problem. ME herself is great company, with lots of interesting stories, useful information about the city, fantastic recommendations for restaurants and other things to do. It was like staying with a close friend, and with a city as intimidating as New York, I really appreciated it.
