I have stayed in the same building before so I was very familiar with everything. It's an old building, classic NYC, so don't expect high-end modern features. Having said that the kitchen and bathroom are modern and recently renovated. The location is amazing and a real plus. In 5 minutes you are in SOHO, Little Italy, Nolita, Chinatown etc… can't really get much better for the LES experience. One downside is that you will be right next to a night club. Expect noise in the evenings especially the weekends. If that doesn't bother you or you want to clubbing yourself it's perfect :)
