I arrived to find Michael ready to show myself and my nieces the apartment, and the amenities. He was gracious, and available if I required assistance. The apartment is spacious, and had the feel of old school New York, as it is over a restaurant. The apartment was clean. The furnishings were nice. The building is older, so if you are looking for a very modern site, this may not be you. It is close to the pier, and walking distance from Time Square. Sullivan's bakery on the next block is great for coffee and french pastries. Michael left us bottled water, fruit and cookies in the apartment. Very nice touch. The area was lively, so I never felt any fear or trepidation. I forgot my sweater in the apartment, and I contacted Michael. He gladly mailed it to me! I am keeping his information, as we are hoping to return again next year. We will be booking with him, if he has openings. Thank you Michael for a great stay!
