4/10 Poor

This is a difficult review. The interior of the apartment does match the posting. It was clean and well maintained. Unfortunately, the location is a bait & switch. The posting has this on a residential street with standard NYC exterior elements. The apartment is actually a 5 minute walk around the corner, on very busy 9th Avenue, above commercial shops with a questionable entrance.The host does not provide check in information until the morning of, leaving little option to make changes and was very defensive when questioned about the location change.We abandoned the rental midway through due to the location feeling unsafe for my college aged daughters to enter/exit solo and because the noise from the street is very loud 24/7. The windows have no noise cancellation at all, we could hear street conversations in detail at 3am. I have submitted a report to VRBO with no resolution. After years of VRBO, this lodging and zero accountability from the host or VRBO has enlightened me that there is no protection in place for a bait & switch situation.
