The apartment in Chelsea is small but easily spacious enough for two people, and was wonderfully warm and cosy. The kitchen is well-stocked with utensils and cooking equipment, and the flat has an excellent store cupboard with towels, tea towels etc, and though the bathroom is small, the shower is excellent. Wifi was reliable, and Netflix is available on the TV.

The location is perfect - close to the subway and Penn Station, so with very easy access to JFK, about half an hour walk to Greenwich Village, half an hour walk to Times Square, half an hour to Brooklyn via the subway and the L.

If, by any chance, you are seeing a late show of Punchdrunk's Sleep No More, or dining at The Heath restaurant, the apartment is just a five-minute walk away too - so maybe consider visiting either of those if you're renting the apartment as you couldn't be more perfectly situated.

Michelle and Vinicio are great hosts - they were always on hand via text and whatsapp if we had any queries or concerns, and were very flexible about checking in/out, and I was even able to meet with Michelle in London to pick up the keys.

If we return to NYC, we would definitely consider renting here again.
