My husband and I loved our stay at Chris's loft. Although the neighborhood is a bit 'gritty', we appreciated having the crosstown bus and the subway right outside the 14th Street door and being able to walk to Soho and to Midtown. We enjoyed being surrounded by all the beautiful antiques (and live plants!), and it was wonderful having two bathrooms so we could get ready for our day at the same time. The full-size kitchen is fully equipped for meal prep should you want to cook, but there are good restaurants nearby if you don't. Both Chris and Gilma responded immediately to our questions. I would highly recommend this property.
