This place is exactly as listed: clean, beautifully decorated, quiet, and situated in the best location! Comfy beds, awesome shower, and top-shelf household items are huge pluses. You could spend weeks right in LES and East Village and still not cover everything; there are plenty of cute shops and places to eat well within a mile radius. Along with Aleksey's tip list, be sure to check out Round K, Kossar's, and Doughnut Plant -- all about a 1-2 minute walk from your door!
Aleksey is lightning quick with responding to you. His place is so easy to get to and all the instructions/house rules are simple and clear; checking in is stress-free, which means you can just drop your stuff of in the room and get out there and enjoy the city!
We definitely will plan to stay at Aleksey's again, if available. Hope you have a blast too!
