Alan’s apartment is stunning! It is a total oasis in the East Village so you get the best of both worlds - comfort, peace and space inside AND life, fun and entertainment on the doorstep. We found it easy to get everywhere, using the subway (only minutes away) the citi-bikes (there’s a drop off stand round the corner) and walking! Every where you turn there is something to do or see - and when you’re ready for a rest, Alan’s apartment is the perfect retreat. To be honest, because Alan is so quick and clear in his communication, I was expecting it to be lovely. However, after spending 5 days here, it was even better. Inside, there is a homely but super stylish open living space with fabulous artwork everywhere. The bed is very comfortable and the kitchen is amazingly spec’d to rustle up breakfast or cook dinner from scratch. The closet is wonderfully spacious (I would love something as roomy as this at home!) and the bathrooms are warm, with soft towels and high specification shower and fixtures. We really couldn’t imagine a better place to base yourself to get the most out of being in NYC. If you want to feel what it’s like to ‘live’ here and feel like a local AND enjoy all the creature comforts of a proper home, come and stay here. We feel delighted to have discovered it, and can’t wait to stay again when we return to this awesome city.
