My stay was great, super easy to check-in, and the location is fantastic (short walk to the East River, parks nearby, bodegas everywhere, and a host of great cafes and restaurants without even leaving the neighborhood. The room was perfect for my short stay, and the bed was very comfortable. The apartment is up a few flights of stairs so just keep that in mind if you have a lot of luggage (or aren't good with stairs). Met Jackie briefly on my last night and had a nice chat about photography, too. Will stay again on a future visit to NYC if the room is available!
