The apartment is a large, light, open plan, amazing Bohemian space in New York City where your average hotel room is pretty tiny! Luca’s passion for art is reflected in the extraordinary paintings that line the walls, and the place does feel as much like a gallery as an apartment, which as fellow artisans suited us just fine. It is very minimal style wise, so very little furniture other than the bed, and a couple of office style chairs. Not an issue for some I’m sure, but we would have liked a table/chairs to sit at to eat breakfast and write/work, or even a couple of bar stools to perch at the kitchen counter. I think we were the first guests to stay, so no doubt Luca will make adjustments as he gets constructive feedback. Part of the reason we Airbnb is we love to cook and don’t want to have to eat every meal out in an expensive city, so it would have been nice to have a kitchen better equipped with the basics. Finally as we were traveling from UK, and at the tail end of a two week trip, we also had fairly large heavy suitcases. The apartment is reached via 5 flights of stairs, and we would have really struggled (again may not be a problem for others) so luckily we were able to pay for storage for our main bags at Penn station. In summary then, a truly unique apartment - in a vibrant, funky neighborhood - and one we would certainly like to return to, just needs a little more attention to the creature comforts to make it as wow! & user friendly for guests as I'm sure it is for Luca.
