Staying at Aurea's studio was amazing! Perfect for a couple or two friends (there is a queen bed and a single bed). Location is great, you can go explore the Lower East Side and SoHo easily and all the other neighborhoods are easy to access by subway. No elevator, but that was even do-able for my pregnant friend. Aurea replied quickly to messages and there were tips for restaurants and cafés written by her personally. Highly recommended!
