Olan's place became our New York home for a week. The location was perfect at such a lovely corner of Meatpacker and Chelsea, just tucked away from the bustle, but no more than 3 minutes walk from Chelsea market. Just across the street is the stairs down to the subway, which was so simple to use and became valuable as we explored the rest of Manhattan. Next to the apartment building is also a great coffee shop! Because its location you had the pick of the best restaurants/bars this area has to offer.

Olan went above and beyond as host. He gave us great tips of what to see and when to visit certain locations to avoid the crowds. He also makes excellent breakfasts! We did not want for anything during our stay, our fridge was stocked up, there was great snacks, fresh towels, bathrobes and even use of fresh toiletries. We felt very well taken cared of.

The loft itself is so very comfortable with lots of space and looks onto the street. It's bright and airy and big enough for two people to relax in without being on top of each other. We made friends with Big Al (cute dog!) and Tuxie (aloof but affectionate cat) and they weren't an issue at all.

I am so glad that we were able to book and stay with Olan and recommend this room and him as host if you ever decide to stay in this part of Manhattan.
