Absolutely great location. Very nice space, well-appointed. Very comfortable bed. As noted, there’s some noise from outdoor bar below. We didn’t mind at all, but you will hear some festive talking, through closed windows in kitchen and bathroom.
A bit disappointed that the patio was not usable from our perspective, with the boisterous crowd right there, and heavy smell from McDonald’s. But this was still an awesome place to stay, right in the heart of the east village, with a great kitchen/private laundry/comfortable sleeping location, and astoundingly quiet sleeping with great sealed windows even though right on very busy 1st ave. Highly recommended. And of course, that gorgeous piano that sadly only reminded me how much I’ve forgotten in 20 years since playing.
