I had to book last minute and Tony was very accommodating. His place felt like a real bohemian artist's residence and is an ideal NYC location. I came in late and left early, so didn't have a chance to meet Tony, but he communicated well to get me the keys and a friend of his showed my around the place. Enjoyed the air conditioned, spacious, quiet room for the three balmy nights I was there, and a newly renovated bathroom.
