We stayed for one week in the apartment. Communication, check-in and check-out was excellent. The large wooden terrace garden is beautiful and really an oasis, where you can have breakfast or just sit and relax. Since Vana informed us beforehand about the music from the club below, we knew that there is going to be loud music of which the base comes trough during nights when it's open. The week, we were there, it was open five nights. On the weekends it can be open until 4 am and on weeknights it closed earlier. Some nights we went to bed pretty early and other nights much later, in both situations music didn't bother us much. The mattress is great, not to hard and not to soft. The location is very central in Alphabet City. We had a wonderful time!
