The apartment is perfect to enjoy New York City. It is located in a beautiful street with residential buildings and small boutiques. It is quiet at night and yet just a block away from the commercial and cultural activity of Soho and the Bowery. The property is right next to the Lower East Side and the East Village, steps away from Soho and some more minutes away from NYU and Washington Square, and Greenwich Village, and Chinatown. You can reach any of this interesting neighborhoods after a pleasurable stroll through the city and all its restaurants and bars, and boutiques and bookstores, and galleries and museums. It also has various food markets nearby. The apartment is charming and comfortable. It makes you feel as if you live in the city. Mathilde, the host, was always available and accommodating. Since we stayed for over a week, she arranged for us to have a cleaning person to come to the apartment when we were out. Also, she let us do an early check-in and a late check-out. Finally, as mentioned in other reviews, the bed is truly one of the most comfortable ever experienced.
