I was very happy with my long stay at Gary's apartment for 10 days! It was easy to get the keys, just a quick walk across the street. The location is perfect, in the charming West Village and close to the Hudson River park for nice walks or bike rides and close to a bunch of train lines. The apartment itself actually felt more spacious than the photos shown, in my opinion, and Gary did a great job at separating out the living area, dining area and bedroom from each other so it truly felt separate. Lots of light too, which is rare for a NY apartment. It is right off 7th AVE, so it is noisy at times but Gary provides ear plugs for sleeping if needed so I had no issue with the noise. The floors are creaky as some other reviewers have mentioned, but this is to be expected in a West Village apartment. I never felt it was going to hurt me or anything, it really is not a big deal. Highly recommend and I would stay here again!
