Damian was really helpful and made sure our arrival and departure ran smoothly. He was easy to communicate with and particularly flexible with letting us leave our bags when we had a late flight. The apartment is spacious and well-represented by the photos. It is good that Damian has installed special windows to black out the street noise. Light sleepers do need to be aware though that it is an old building where you may be occasionally be disturbed by plumbing and noises from the other apartments. For NYC this is to be expected, in any case and we felt that the apartment was good value. The location is great! Really close to lovely bars and cafes of East village.
