Koray was great to deal with. He answered all my questions promptly and was very flexible with my check in and check out times.

My husband and I stayed at Koray's apartment for 3 nights. This place is absolutely gorgeous and wonderfully designed. The updated photos on air bnb are very accurate, showing all the new funky furniture and Koray's thoughtful design. As you are on the top floor, you get great views from the apartment and lots of sunlight. Only downside of being on the top floor is all the stairs which is only a problem if you have a lot of luggage. We did... but still managed.

What else...there is lots of great artwork to check out around the house, the bed is comfy and the place is generally equipped with everything that you need.

You do hear a bit of traffic noise from the aparment (New Yorkers sure like honking)... but I'm a relatively light sleeper and still managed to get a good night's sleep.

The apartment is located in the Lower East side and is in easy walking distance to East Village, Chinatown, Soho, etc. We didn't bother using the subway once. You get a really true New York apartment experience here. We didn't see that many tourists walking around so it was good to pretend being locals.

There is a Wholefoods supermarket close by and lots of food joints within walking distance so if you want to eat in then you can. The kitchen is fully equipped too.

Would definitely recommend this place to others.
