Mixed review. First and foremost, this is not a normal air bnb rental, it’s through a company called Sonder and they make you verify your identity/credit card separately on their website after as well as put a CC down for a deposit. I had numerous issues with this and had to reach out to customer service over 5 times and it was a HUGE pain. I will not rent through them again.
The unit itself was very spacious, the beds were comfortable, the bedding itself was clean and comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, the rooftop lounge was a nice perk, the location was easy to get to broadway and most destinations. Our Ubers everywhere were about $15-$20. Not a walkable area if that’s what you’re looking for but quick trips to get around via car.
The negatives on the unit: first and foremost it was the dirtiest Airbnb I’ve ever been to and I’ve been to many. The wood floors seemed like they have NEVER been cleaned. I took my shoes off before realizing and the bottom of my feet were black within minutes. It was gross, we all refused to take our shoes off the whole trip or had special socks to wear when walking around. The walls were all visibly dirty, more than just scuffs. Some of the “clean” dishes on the shelf had food stuck on them, one plate in particular in the stack seemed like almost a whole stick of melted butter was left on it. Also, if you are a light sleeper, I definitely do not recommend. The unit walls are so thin you can hear everything in the other units and some of the bedrooms face the parking lot which seemed to have people hanging out in it every night we were there. I live in an apartment myself and these walls are not like normal apt walls-super thin. Also, maybe this should have been obvious to us as it’s a townhouse but the amount of stairs you have to carry your luggage up is daunting. Like 50 stairs just to get to the main door of the unit and then another 50 to get to the main level with bedrooms. We are talking a LOT of steep stairs. Lastly, they had some controls on the thermostat and we couldn’t go below 69 degrees with the air conditioning and the second level with three of the bedrooms got very hot at night.
