John’s place is in a superb location — the east village right by the F train and just a few blocks from St Mark’s square (one of my favorite yoga places is there)! The room was comfortable and exactly as described. The shared spaces were wonderful and we enjoyed using the kitchen each morning for breakfast. It would have been great to have access to our own hand towels and wash cloths instead of sharing in the communal bathroom. Additionally having another set of keys would have made the trip more convenient for my husband and myself as I was at a conference in midtown while he explored the city so we had to do some extra coordination that took a bit of time. Overall wonderful trip in a superb city!
