The apartment is nicely sized for 5 people and is situated about 1hr away from Manhattan (by public transport). The communication with the hosts was great - we were there for circa 10 days and asked if we could get fresh towels and toilet paper and they responded quickly and helped us well. Where we had issues though was with the cleanliness of the apartment. The apartment was “freshly renovated” which just means it had a quick and dirty new coat of paint, and where everything is off (uneven/not level floors, lights, kitchen elements, etc.). Dust was present everywhere, the AC looked like it wasn’t cleaned once in its lifetime just like the fan in the small room. The cupboards above the stove were sticky and dirty as they haven’t been cleaned from the grease left by the previous tenants. Since they mentioned a professional cleaning service was taking care of the apartment, we expected more in this regard.
