Z's place was great, especially the location. It's close to everything I was hoping to do and see. During my stay I walked everywhere I went, including over to the East Village & west to the new Whitney and the High Line. I didn't meet Zach but he was flexible and made the keys available even with my uncertain arrival time. And he was helpful in suggesting restaurants and bars nearby.

He provided coffee, though there are some excellent cafes nearby as well. The place isn't big but that's par for this neighborhood & it's arranged smart & comfortable. Relative to what else I was looking at, I lucked out that this was available.
