While we didn't get a chance to interact with Syed as much as we were out most days, Syed is super friendly and we're happy we chose him for our first Airbnb experience! The place was exactly as listed! Very clean, private room with enough space to comfortably fit 2. We stayed for a full week and had a great time! It is in an awesome neighborhood with tons of restaurants, coffee shops, and convenient stores, and just a short subway ride to Manhattan (and conveniently located within a short 5 min walk of the subway). We will definitely look into staying with him again on our next New York visit.
