Lauren's appartment is very nice and cosu, and extremely quiet which is very rare for people who know NY.
Lauren is the best host. Everything was prepared for us, fresh towels, tea/coffee..., and instructions re the area; the bed is very comfortable, so is the sofa.
Lauren was completely available whenever we had a question.
The only minus, should there be one, is the lack of elevator. But again, in this area this is pretty standard.
The area is amazing, 1 block from Pastis and the highline, 2 blocks from Bleecker street and Magnolia Bakery :), ... I would definitely come back at Lauren's place next time I am over in NY!
