So happy to have found this large two-storey space in an old building on 13th Street - Perfect! Just loved this place, and wish it were mine! Super cozy, all bedrooms private and with their own private bathrooms. Two working fireplaces, and a large open-concept downstairs with kitchen, dining and living room. Intimate and eclectic, rather than a sterilized hotel or designer feel, so it felt very much like a home one could read and relax in. Good sound system too which we very much appreciated, and smart TVs in two bedrooms: exactly what we like. The upstairs is a gem: one is poised on top of 3rd Avenue with no one above, so great views, lots of light, and two outside terraces which, combined, are the size of many working flats in the city. So unique, and so special!
The neighborhood is ideal as it is in the heart of the Village. Excellent supermarket across the street with lots of fresh produce, plenty of restaurants and bars, and easy walks to Union Square, Washington Square, Gramercy Park, Flatiron, and the best book store in the world: the Strand.
Steven was such a kind and communicative owner, as was Christine who met us when we arrived, helped us with our luggage, and showed us all around. (Another plus: there is an elevator!) She had even left goodies in the fridge for us, as we arrived rather late. Also very much appreciated.
Would love to stay here again, and miss it already. It is quintessentially a Manhattan experience, and the best. That includes allowing well-behaved pups!
