We had a very nice stay at Marcus and Leonhard's place. It was convenient to what we had to do the weekend we were in town. Both Marcus and Leonhard were excellent in responding back the entire weekend when I had questions etc. I communicated with both of them during my stay. It's a great place to stay if you have a few people, as the rooms all close off. We were 4, and it was very comfortable for Manhattan standards. They left a bottle of wine and some chips upon arrival which, i thought was a wonderful touch. I enjoyed exploring Houston street and throughout the neighborhood. They are close to the F train. I would highly recommend. I normally stay on the Upper West side, but wanted a different experience. The East village was definitely a change. Lots of great coffee and family owned eateries.
