This apartment is truly a hidden gem on the lower east side. A very well-done one-bedroom apartment that is well-furnished and appointed. It felt like I was coming home, and not to a hotel room or to a place furnished by Ikea/Pottery Barn. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow, Takeshi is extremely responsive and flexible, and it was a great stay. The apartment is on the edge of the lower east side and it is easy to walk everywhere--including to the subway.
