Eran is a VERY responsive, concerned and considerate host. He is deliberate in his efforts to ensure that our stay at his property was both comfortable and enjoyable. Although I did not meet Eran personally, he was always quick to respond to my texts and calls. His associate, Noam was great, too! He was very helpful and would even come by the apartment when we needed assistance. When I had concerns or requests, they were attended to or resolved on the same day or a day later at most.
We were a party of 5 traveling with our adult children and we had plenty of space to move around and had no issues storing our luggage.
The apartment is not new, but that is what makes it quite charming. It is housed in one of the older buildings in New York City, so it is bigger than most places. It has been renovated to give it a modern and current feel. While the age of the apartment is evident in the hardware like the pipes and the heater, the overall feel of the apartment is very comfortable and relaxing. Eran even provided portable heaters in each room which was perfect for us.
The apartment has no lift so you would need to carry your luggage up the stairs. The kitchen is not that big, but it has the appliances you need for prepping meals at home when you just want to stay in.
The location is excellent with restaurants and bars, convenience stores and even a Trader Joe's and a Starbucks within a block. Subway is about 3 blocks away, but it is a nice walk.
I would definitely recommend staying with Eran and I will definitely book this place again when we return to NYC!
