The location of the apartment is excellent - chelsea, the village and a host of other places are walking distance. The subway is also right around the corner. Having starbucks 20 yards away is always helpful! The apartment itself is exactly as seen in the pictures. We were a family of 4 and really enjoyed the expanse of space. It has a very NYC vibe with the brickwalls. There is a lovely sit-out which makes the place unique. The host was very responsive. There was a cleanliness issue, which the host responded to immediately. I would recommend the apartment.
