Kristin met me at the door and even carried my bag up the stairs to the apartment.

The sleeping/sitting area was as described, 2 big windows that brought in the sunlight and the breeze. The bathroom was huge, you could take your shower and look out at Bleecker Street.

Many shops and almost any kind of food you wanted was just outside your front door. Subway/train were just a few short blocks away.

Kristin had a Manhattan Street map and several travel books that you could use.

the only negative thing about the place was that you had 65 stairs to climb to get to the apartment....which for me was no problem
