WOW, what an apartment. If you are searching for a quiet oasis in NYC, look no further than this place in Chelsea. Awesome location on a quiet street, meaning undisturbed sleep on the most comfortable of beds. The apartment is well very equipped although not brand new and shiny, the AC keeps it at the perfect temperature at all times and the small kitchen area is perfect for breakfast & coffee, plus simple meals. The stairs are just normal stairs people, we had no problems with our suitcases at all. Unless you are expecting a double width stairway leading off from a hotel lobby, you don't need to worry. Great comms with the owner throughout. Overall, clean, cosy, functional and comfortable so absolutely ideal after a tough days sightseeing. Provided the perfect base for two of us over for a 5 night stay, highly recommended - you won't regret it !
