I had a wonderful stay here and cannot say enough good things about both the place, and the hosts, Carmia and Joe. The place is a cozy little spot that is beautifully decorated with everything you may need. I was there for 4 days and I started to feel at home there after just a day. It's easily accessible to the city but once inside it has an "away from it all" feel that I really enjoyed coming back to. Plenty of space and quiet but also great location at the same time. Carmia and Joe are very responsive and helpful. Carmia sent me a list of fabulous restaurants before my stay and Joe brought me popcorn and a beautiful bottle of rum. These things made a great stay in a great apartment an even better experience. Also the location is great - very close to the subway and I could hop on and take the j train straight into lower east side. It was just me staying there but could have slept 4 with a bed on the main floor and another pull out on the bottom floor where the tv is. I would def recommend and will prbly be back myself :)
