This is a nice apartment on the lower east side. We used the subway and busses to get around the city with no problems. There are a lot of nice neighborhood restaurants in the area. The beds were very comfortable, and it was a lovely, relaxing space to be in. NOTE: the apartment is on the 4th floor—three flights of stairs that curve. No elevator. Probably not a problem for most people, but it was difficult for me with my bad knees. The neighborhood is noisy (we sleep with the windows open), especially on the weekend. But that’s NYC for you, the city that never sleeps. Make sure you’re arriving and leaving during regular-extended business hours, as the key is kept inside a local convenience store. Joanna was responsive and helpful.
