I'm an artist as well as a solo traveler for the weekend I stayed at Kristin's place.
I absolutely loved the decor of her loft, her taste is exquisite, and suited me perfectly.
Kristin was very friendly and comfortable to be around, and happy to answer any of my questions about the neighbourhood. I really appreciated her welcoming me into her beautiful home.
It is a very lively neighbourhood, and there was street noise on weekend evenings, but I was expecting that given the location. I didn't find the late evening street noise a problem for sleeping, and I enjoyed the contrast of the very quiet mornings.
If you are looking for a very comfortable and beautifully adorned, spacious loft stay with a lovely local artist, I would definitely recommend Kristin's place.
Extra bonus if you are a runner, as Hudson River Park is about 8 minutes away, and allows for endless running on the waterside pathways, separated from traffic.
Thanks again Kristin, it was so nice to meet you!
best,
Pat
