Rick and David were wonderful hosts although we never had the opportunity to meet them in person as we stayed during the Thanksgiving holiday weekend and they were away. Even though they were away they made arrangements with the doorman for our access to the apt. late in the evening. During our stay they were always very accessible and helpful with restaurant suggestions as well as art exhibitions. When we arrived we spoke with Rick over the phone and he provided a thorough overview of the apartment -what was where etc. A couple of times I had questions and texted Rick and he responded very quickly.

The apartment is as described and pictured and HUGE. And you simply can't beat the location. Located in the heart of the Meatpacking district there's plenty of shops, restaurants, etc. and it's only a short stroll from two subway stations. Try the brunch at Standard Grille a block away (another tip of Rick's) and the octopus is particularly recommended.

Although the apartment is centrally located and on the ground floor it was perfectly quiet during our entire stay.

Throughout the experience Rick and David made us feel as if we were staying at the apartment of a friends. They simply couldn't have been more generous in spirit or more welcoming. We definitely plan to stay there again and hopefully get to meet them.
