This place is in a great area. As we drove through the neighbourhood to the apartment, I was reminded why I love it here. The pace is much less hectic than Midtown and the feeling of community is alive and well. The green spaces, the shops, the quantity of lovely restaurants... yes the Village is the best.

Once you get up to Elle's actual apartment, I am pleased to say it was very clean and orderly. It's not a huge space, but it's for sure more spacious than most NYC hotels. I liked the view of the trees in front of the building and it was fun people watching as they strolled along Carmine. The accommodations were definitely reasonable for the rate we paid.

It was very easy arranging things with Elle and she was clear and reliable. This was my first stay with airbnb and I was pleased.
