The architecture of this place is beautiful. I had great communication with my host and his staff. Check in and out was easy. The location is great if you like to be in the middle of everything, which I do, so in that sense this place is great. Keep in mind that Palermo Soho is a very eclectic neighborhod. You can walk to great restaurants, stores, coffee shops, etc. There's actually a Starbucks across the street - which it was very handy, as the unit didn't have a coffee maker or a toaster oven; however, there was instant coffee supplied by the host. The place is a back unit, in what I believe to be a three or four unit building. The unit is the back, so you won't hear any noise from the outside bars, and restaurants. It's actually very quiet. FYI, you need to go up three steep ramps to get to the unit. If it's rainy season, make sure to bring an umbrella and good walking shoes. My host left a welcome gift, which was very kind, and welcoming. The AC worked great in the main room, and it was on when we got there, which was very thouhtful. As other guests mentioned, the furniture and kitchen utensils looked a bit tired, but I'm sure the host can attend to that. Gabriel thank you for welcoming us for a few days!! LOVE B.A.
