Lauren was great - she maintained contact through out our stay, all instructions were easy to follow and her recommendations on the neighbourhood were extensive and excellent. The apartment is perfect for two, exactly as described, clean, well decorated... It felt like home away from home for a week. I had researched extensively about location - we wanted the village experience with lots of boutique shopping, restaurants and wine bars. The location is a stones throw from Greenwich and Meatpacking and it exceeded any expectations we had. It's also close to the subway and grocery stores. It was a perfect retreat after long days of sight seeing, shopping and city bustle. I have nothing but great things to say about our first air bnb experience and highly reccomend Lauren's apartment. My only complaint was having to leave :)
