The description of the apartment was accurate, and as described it was very clean, large, well equipped, and made the perfect base for our family holiday. Deborah's communication was excellent, and she responded to emails very quickly - instantly whilst we were in New York and within 24 hours if we contacted her from England.
Staying in the heart of the East Village was a wonderful experience. We were a minutes walk from Tompkins Square Park and numerous shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. The area was friendly, vibrant and culturally diverse. It was a great location to reach the other areas of Manhattan. We chose to walk to most of these- within an hour walking distance - which enabled us to see and experience parts of the city we may have missed travelling by bus or cabs. However, the bus route was easy to navigate and Deborah left very clear instructions about the local bus stops and routes. Cabs were always available in the area.
