A great welcome from Vanessa, especially appreciated at 8pm after a long day of travel. The apartment was even more spacious than we'd dare hope, for our family of five incl 5 older children (16-21), with a courtyard garden too. Great location between 8&9th, walkable to most places, including so many wonderful eateries, galleries, independent shops in Meatpacking and Chelsea districts. It was over 90 degrees in NY so the air con was a life saver. Apt was really clean and comfortable with a fridge full of breakfast goodies and other treats. Vanessa was more than generous, and helpful with luggage storage and restaurant recommendations - we enjoyed our best meal in New York at the Chop Shop Chelsea!
Would highly recommend staying here.
