To begin with, this was my first time using the Airbnb Service and my first time in NYC. Adrienne's placed looked very warm and cozy in her photos and was priced the most economical for my budget. Setting up this reservation was very easy. Adrienne replied to my email and accepted my reservation. She called before my arrival to NY to confirm and went over the procedure for our stay. She was very helpful with information on how to get to her apartment from the airport and where to pick up her... More »
October 2011everithig was like Adrianne wrote. it is a small apartment but perfect for a couple (like us) or two good friends. perfect location! very old building but in a good and safe neighborhood. she was a perfect and very kind host, even we did not meet her. also her friend Maria, who was charged for the key exchange, was wery kind. we kindly recommend Adrianne as your host!
Adrienne's place was perfect! Small as she describes but very well organised and very good vibes to it! The bed was indeed very comfortable which is a definite plus when you have exhausting days around Manhattan (yes, shopping). I didn't get to meet Adrienne personnally since she was away (which is logical if you are renting her place), but picking up the keys and giving them back went smoothly and her friend Maria was very nice and helpful. Would definitely try to book her place next time... More »
Perfect host - ideal location, very quiet apt. close to everything. Would definitely stay again.
My first experience with airbnb and it couldnt have went any better.the location was central and just right. Adrienne go the extra mile to see that her guests are comfortable and settled in. I felt like i was staying at a friend. I would recomend it ! Its the place i will stay always when in NYC
Adrienne was responsive and a pleasure to work with. Unfortunately, due to a family emergency, I was unable to keep my travel plans to NYC; however, my friend kept the reservations and informed me she really enjoyed her stay at Adrienne's clean & cute apartment. When I plan my next trip, I would love to stay here! Thanks!
We enjoyed our stay here. The apartment was very clean and well maintained. We would definitely recommend this place to our friends.
Cute apartment. Great location. Would definitely stay there again!
Probably the best one-bedroom apartment one could find! I slept there a lot more than I'd planned because the bed was just too comfortable. Rooms full of nice, inspiring decorations. Great location near Grand Central. Adrienne is a great host.
Adrienne is a perfect host, he answered all the e-mails and graciously helped us in all. The house were as she said, the location is very good, it's a good place in Manhattan!
Très bien placé, à 3 blocks du métro à 7 min de grand central. Appartement confortable avec tout le nécessaire : draps, serviettes, alimentaire... Adrienne est super sympa, accueillante et nous a sauvé d'une situation vraiment mal embarquée.
Adrienne's apartment was a wonderful place to stay! The host was available most of the time we tried to contact her, and all of the accommodations promised were included. It was very close to many attractions and navigation was easy! I would definitely book this place again without hesitation.
A great host. Everything came exactly as advertised. Communicating with Adrienne and her friends was easy and reasonably quick. Bruce M.'s comments below summarize our impressions well. There are some small outside costs, such as laundry pickup and dropoff, but worth the small effort as it keeps the overall cost down. Excellent value. We would definitely stay again if the chance arises. Thanks Adrienne!
Adrienne was great at the initial contact, responded quickly when my other booking with AirBnB fell over. Really enjoyed staying in her apartment in Murray Hill. The place is small, but is a comfortable and quiet haven at the end of a busy NY day. The location is excellent too, and near some iconic NY landmarks. She is very generous, happy for guests to use her belongings. There is no TV, but hey, you don't go to New York City to watch television. Did not get to meet Adrienne directly, which... More »
Adri was a wonderful host, she and her partners were very helpful and kind at all times. The flat is conveniently placed. Grand Central station really close and Empire State or Times Square at an easy 10-15 minutes walk more or less. Everything clean though bathroom a bit old. We missed a TV, nevertheless. Good value. Thanks Adrienne!
Adrienne, I have just seen your review and it surprises me how can you be so accurate when you were never there or never met you. What do you mean the apartment was not well kept? It is true I made the next guest wait, for approximately 40 minutes if I recall and I apologized to him, and it was time I spent cleaning for him. What do you mean the guest did not fit through the hallway? This has to be figurative speech because he did fit and left his stuff in the room while he went to buy... More »
Great little place in a lovely neighborhood. Adrinne was very friendly and easy to talk to. She went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed. We had a comfortable stay in her apartment.
Clean, centrally located, cozy and a great place to stay. Having lived in Manhattan I can say that I am more than pleased with my stay here. Adrienne is very easy to deal with and accommodating. Her apartment is a gem and I would stay here again without a doubt!
Although i was unable to make the stay due to an injury, addrienne was kind enough to give me a credit. I look forward to staying there in March.
Adrienne was very helpful and informative for our stay. Unfortunately, illness got the best of us, and we were unable to make the trip but will definitely look for her place first when we reschedule our visit.
Adrienne's place is superb! It is clean, comfortable and very cosy. Adrienne is also a delight to deal with. I would definately recommend her place.
Adrienne's apartment is very nice and clean. It is in a convenient location just blocks down from the subway. We had a very comfortable experience in her apartment!
The apartment is very quiet and clean! Very zen. And the bed is extremely comfortable. We felt at home. Parking nearby on 32nd btw 2nd and 3rd was very affordable.
Had a nice stay at Adrienne's apartment in Murray Hill. I'd definitely recommend her place to friends.
Very nice place and quiet
Wonderful location--accommadations warm and friendly
She is a lovely and responsible person who stayed in the room without giving any problem whatsoever. It´s nice to have people like this in this world.
July 2010Smarty pants you are indeed...loved having you here, you are so vivacious, smart, interesting and spunky..... till the next time we meet again....Kathie & Larry
I've known Adrienne for years and can highly recommend her company, as well as her apartment; she's a fellow traveler who never lacks for a great story - or an upcoming plan. She's also extremely organized and reliable! Her apartment is NYC small, but fun; the decorating style eclectic and artsy, with lots of stuff gathered from her various travels. In short, meet her if you can, and use her place with confidence.
Linda is a Friend January 2012I loved staying at Adrienne's place! It's quiet and cozy, with everything you need (comfy bed, a breakfast nook, full bathroom with tub, and a fully kitchen stocked by someone who really cooks!) It was great to be so close to restaurants, affordable nail salons, libraries, shopping and supermarkets in Manhattan. I leisurely walked across town to a concert at Madison Square Garden, and to Penn Station and Bolt Bus. If you get to meet Adrienne in person, you'll adore her.
The location, roommate & space are wonderful & welcoming! As an overnight guest, I know first-hand that Adrienne has created an urban oasis. Enjoy!
