Great place especially if you're staying in the city for a week as we did. The location is perfect, everything is just a short walk away (subway stations, dining, sights, etc.). So if you're looking for a place which puts you in the midst of the West Village, look no further.
As to booking: everything went smoothly from our first enquiry (48hrs before arrival) to check-in and communication during our stay.
The apartment was clean and the bed is supercomfy. There are 2 A/Cs which do a terrific job in this summer heat!
We will happily come back to stay at Mike's place whenever we're in New York City.
