I really enjoyed staying at Alex & Ivy. First, we arrived late on a friday night and they were super accomodating to get us a quick access to the appartment for us to rest. Then, they made sure we had all local info to get our next day started. The appartment is super clean and it's a great location. Grumpy Coffee is right next door and Little Italy is right around the corner. Big kitchen and big table. Lots of space and a private room. Spacious bathroom and all super clean. I have stayed in many hotels in New York and this place beats them all. It was fabulous.
