A radiator (that makes occasionally gurgles) to keep you very warm in the winter (please let us know if you are too hot or too cold after check in). We also have a space heater should you require it. In the summer there is a window AC unit, which hums.
If you need to wash your clothing, a laundromat is two blocks way, there is also a pick up and drop off service should you desire. Should you require a housekeeper ours can be arranged for an additional fee.

Meet The Host
Joseph
Owner
I’m a born and bred New Yorker, who is fascinated by people, naturally I became a behavioral scientist and researcher. More than that I am also a mom to a wonderful 7 year old son. I adore arts and antiques and have a penchant for designing and decorating beautiful inspiring spaces. My goal is to create a warm and cozy environment where guests are intrigued and commune with the decor and experience the space.Home sharing has been a tradition in my family for decades, I picked up the torch more than 15 years ago and felt each visit becoming transactional and impersonal. I am not a typical “host”, I like learning and getting to know guests. In an effort to host from the heart, I take a personal approach I don’t want to miss an opportunity to connect with humanity. I share my home as a service to my community, this is not a hotel; I want to celebrate you and your family’s triumphs as well as vicissitudes. I hope when visitors stay with me they feel like home.

The apartment is non smoking, No smoking or drug use is permitted. Any guest found to be smoking or using drugs will be asked to leave immediately and no refunds will be given.
During winter months, heat is provided and controlled by the building, please do not try to control the heat by using the radiator valve, this could cause damage to the system, if you are too hot or too cold please let us know and we can try to adjust the settings for you. In New York City it is common for the apartments to run hot and often people open their window slightly to control temperature.
In the summer months there is a window ac unit in the apartment. We ask that you please turn off the ac when you're not home.
Please turn off the lights when you leave the apartment for the day.

Our handyman Marco will stop in periodically (usually Mondays, Wednesday or Thursday) to restock toilet paper, coffee, sugar, etc. and pickup or drop off laundry. He is also available for maintenance requests.
We work very hard to give every guest a great and cost effective alternative to staying in a hotel. I hope we have earned a 5 star review, but if for some reason you feel that you would rate your stay less than 5 stars please speak to me personally PRIOR to posting a review. I hope you’d bring to my attention and immediately allow me to remedy any fixable issues.
Airbnb expects us hosts to maintain an average 5 star rating. Their review system is not like the hotel ratings. Airbnb tells hosts that any stars below 5 is a horrible review.
This is what Brian Chesky the CEO of Airbnb says about the 5 star system: “The paradigm with customers today is 5 stars. The problem with 5 stars is you have to be really bad to get 4 stars. Reaching 5 stars is just being nice enough”.
No smokingNo petsNo parties or eventsCheck-in is anytime after 5:00 PM
