I highly recommend Ken's place. While the street itself is fairly quiet and residential, it's a short block away from the delicious restaurants and cafes of Little Italy, as well as parks and public transportation, it's a perfect place from which to enjoy the city. Ken is a gracious and organized host and you'll find yourself in a well-designed space with comfortable beds, beautiful mid-century furniture, and a well-appointed kitchen. I hope to return in the future when I have more time to explore.
