I really enjoyed my stay at Sky’s place. She was a friendly host, and she provided a lot of recommendations for things to see and do in New York. She even carried my suitcase up and down the stairs (and gave me cupcakes)!
She was also quick to respond, which I appreciate because I was still looking for rooms a couple of days before I was due to arrive in New York! I’d initially thought that I wanted to stay in Chelsea/the Meatpacking District, but I’m so happy that I didn’t.
Nolita is such a lively neighborhood. It’s so close to a lot of the great clothing boutiques and shops that I was hoping to visit on my trip. There are tons of restaurants nearby as well, and you’re a pretty short walk from the Lower East Side and the East Village (one of my favorite neighborhoods to explore).
The apartment itself is also nice and – since I visited in July – I really appreciated the air conditioner! It has every amenity a traveler could need to feel at home. There’s no washer/dryer on site, but I did notice a laundromat across the street if that happens to be a dealbreaker.
I was there for 8 days, and I had a pretty comfortable stay. I will definitely try to book her place the next time I’m in New York.
