My 8yo child and I had a really lovely stay in this cozy West Village apartment. Daniel has an amazingly green thumb and the walls are lined with beautiful plants that keep the city air fresh. Every element of the apartment has a designer's touch, and he's done a lot with a small space. The big tv and sonos surround sound were fun to watch a movie! The bed was comfortable and the A/C unit kept everything nice and cool since the temps were still hot outside. We didn't cook there but the kitchen appeared well-stocked. We absolutely loved the neighborhood too. So many coffeeshops and great restaurants within walking distance, and in such a beautiful part of town. Easy subway access as well just up the street!
As far as communication, Daniel was very friendly and helpful, and very responsive to my texts!
Only notes would be that it's a 3rd floor walk-up so be ready for some stairs if that's a concern for you, and if you plan to have someone sleep on the couch in the front room at night the bar & restaurant fun is loud all evening so bring ear plugs (couldn't hear any of it from the bedroom, thankfully!).
Would definitely recommend Daniel's apartment for a NYC stay!
