Helen Has an Apartment

Located in the East Village known for its trendy restaurants, vintage shopping & nightlife. The room has a queen bed with an 4 inch memory foam topper, an attached bathroom(shared) & 5G Wifi. The 2nd Ave F-Line Subway is just a 1.5 short blocks away. All races, religions & LGBTQ are welcome! I love hosting and am happy to give you all the guidance you want or do not want. I am a native New Yorker and have surprised myself since I started hosting with how much I know about New York City. I can suggest some activities and places to see that are off the beaten path and I can definitely tell you where to shop! I know what museums are free and how to see the Statue of Liberty up close for free. I probably won't be giving you a personal walking tour but I can get you set-up for a great one to take on your own. If you would prefer minimal interaction, just let me know. I am home a lot but I am very good at just "being" in my own personal space. AMENITIES: - Queen Mattress with 4 inch Memory Foam Topper - Ensuite Bathroom - High Speed 5G 100mbps WiFi Internet - Storage - Closet & a dresser - Hair-Dryer, Shampoo, Conditioner & Soap - Full Length Mirror - Umbrellas - Iron -Temperature Control over Heat & New Ultra-Quiet Air Conditioner BEDROOM: The room is on the small side but normal for the East Village. The door to the bedroom is a custom-made floor to ceiling sliding barn door without a lock. The bedroom has a comfortable queen pillow-top mattress bed with 4 pillows. There is a wall heater and a brand new Midea U-Inverter Window Air Conditioner known for being the quietest model available, both which which you control the temperature. BATHROOM - The bathroom is attached to the bedroom and I will need to go through the bedroom to access it in order to clean it daily & occasionally shower while you are out. I always ask your permission first. I provide a hair dryer for my guests to use, as well as shampoo, conditioner and soap. I also provide washcloths, a hand towel and bath towel for each guest. I do not provide any personal hygiene items such as: toothbrushes, deodorant or hair brushes. SLEEPING ALL DAY: If staying out all night and sleeping to mid-afternoon EVERY day is your ideal schedule, great for you but we may not be a good match as my apartment is small and I cannot guarantee "silence" after 8 or 9am. I say this because I want my guests to have a great trip and I recognize I may not be the best fit for all. KITCHEN: If you need access to the kitchen, of course you can use it. I do ask meals & anything more that is loud please be done between 8am-11PM as it is right next to where I sleep. LIVING ROOM: It just won't be available after 9pm as it is essential my "bedroom" at that point. CHECK-IN: The check-in window is anytime between 4 PM and 9 PM, but it is rarely an issue if you need to check-in later so just let me know when booking. I ask all guests for an expected arrival time before your stay so I can plan my day accordingly. Check-out is by 10AM. BUILDING/STAIRS: The building is a walk-up which means no elevator. You will need to be able to carry your luggage up 2 flights of stairs. PAYMENT: I prefer to receive payment via Zelle or CashAPP
