Fantastic hostess :) Tenney is lovely, friendly and very easy going. Tenney's place is clean, convenient, big and welcoming, and certainly does have a great vibe. The location was very convenient for my requirements and of course it's close to the city which is great too. I will not hesitate to go back next time I'm in NY and I look forward to keeping in touch with Tenney. Thanks for a great stay.
October 2009Tenney's place is the perfect place to stay in New York. It is the best value for money we've come across in a long time. Tenney is a very welcoming and hospitable host. She makes you feel very comfortable and she has some interesting stories to tell about her experiences. The room is clean and spacious and the bathroom is right next door. Although we apparently shared it with Tenney we didn't even know she was there or ever in the bathroom. The house has wooden floors, creating a homely... More »

Living with Tenney was such a great experience. I stayed for four nights, and I wish I was able to spend even more time with Tenney. She is open, genuine, and such an interesting person. The bedroom was quite spacious, and very neat. There is also a nice and neat living room, kitchen, and bathroom. I loved the colors of the house--definitely an artsy vibe. My favorite place to eat for breakfast was in the neighborhood--Igloo (Tenney made some great recommendations!). Public transit was really... More »
I stayed at Tenney's the first week of August (I'm a little late at reviewing.. you try battling a brutal dial up connection!) and I absolutely *loved* it! Tenney is so warm and friendly, I really enjoyed talking with her and sharing some life stories. She is very polite and gracious, and her aura is very calming and relaxing.. a MUST when visiting the city! The place itself was very clean and colorful, and I had plenty of privacy. The room is spacious and conveniently located next to the... More »
Tenny was wonderful. The room was clean and neat. She made me feel welcome and everything in her house was open to me. Very nice to be around. A joy to talk to. Her place is very close to train stations and restaurants. The area is very diverse, the neighbors are friendly. I would definitely recommend staying with her.
July 26 2009 We spent our three week 2009 holiday in New York. How to pay for accommodation and how to feel at home for three weeks? Airbnb turned out to be part of the answer. From the very efficient and informative website we were able to match ourselves to a B& B host. Or better five hosts, since we decided to live in different areas in New York. Our first choice, for our first week was B & B Karibu Sana! (A Swahili saying which means Most Welcome!) Our host Tenny was very welcoming,... More »
Tenney is an exceptional host! I would recommend her to anyone. She is very friendly, kind and considerate. My friend Therese and I both enjoyed her company very much. Not only is she great, so is her home. She has a cozy place and it is very clean and tidy. There is lot's of privacy and AC too. It was very close to The Metro Station and many great places to eat as well. I have never felt more welcome anywhere. I hope to go back to NY someday and when I do I will stay at her place again.
The room was great and Tenney was a fantastic host. A lot of privacy and the neighbourhood was terrific as well with the property being only a short walk from the metro station. A great value.
Tenney is the BEST host, ever! Not only did we enjoy our accommodations, we enjoyed her company. The spot may have been a great find, but meeting a beautiful soul you can call a friend is where the luck really resided. Open-minded and open-hearted, Tenny's generosity with her personality made our stay an invaluable experience.
Lucky to have found this one! Tenney is very chill and easygoing. Great space, a lot of privacy -- I will book with her again. In fact, I just did!! Thanks, Tenney!
a super friendly and discrete guest. loved the room and spacious bathroom
tenney is an expert traveler who has found her way around much of the world using her signature smile, charm and cross-cultural common sense. her warm demeanor and considerate nature will make her a welcome guest in your home. the only danger is you won't want her to leave.
