What I Can Share with Hosts
Crazy awesome apartment on the 23rd floor of a brand new building in the Lower East Side, with a spare bedroom and beautiful kitchen overlooking the midtown skyline. I normally rent it on Airbnb but when it's empty I'm down to have the occasional couch surfer stay around.
