Blue is a good host and answers questions really quickly. The apartment is very well-located, right in the heart of the lower east side. During our stay, NYC's temperature got really high and we noticed that the air conditioner was not installed. We talked to Blue and he volunteered to have a friend come over to install it. We ended up installing the air conditioner ourselves - which took some effort because the thing was really heavy. The apartment was also a little dusty and the host's personal stuff (clothes and etc.) were kind of all over the place - and not kept in the closet. Though the apartment was generally quiet, things got noisy sometimes during the night because the apartment is located in a low floor. In all, our stay was satisfactory.
