A very cozy, charming, kitschy studio in a remarkable location. Had everything we needed, but just remember it's an old building. Being January, we were quite cold at times, even with the heat on, so bring some things to wear inside such as socks and slippers and sweaters. The bathtub is great but you will need to be a little intentional about hot water usage. Great natural light, comfortable bed, plenty of storage space for luggage and clothes. We did not use the cooking facilities but we could have cooked easily if we wanted to.
There are so many great options for coffee in the morning, drinks at night, and food. You will only need to go downstairs for everything you need, or walk a few blocks for more options. Note that business hours vary greatly and you should always keep them in mind when making plans. Subway is maybe a 2 or 3 minute walk. For late nights, there will be a few small convenience stores (bodega types) where you can pick up some basics.
Élise is a very kind, helpful host. She provided us with recommendations, answered questions promptly, and addressed any issues with urgency. We would be more than happy to be her patrons again. We can highly recommend staying at Élise's studio.
