Ellie's West Village apartment was exactly as pictured and a great choice for our 3 day trip in NYC. You cannot beat the location! We loved waking each morning and strolling a few blocks to find numerous bakeries/coffee shops that surround the tree lined streets in the neighborhood. We spent most of our time outside the apartment enjoying everything the city has to offer but it was a delight to come back to the apartment each evening. It was a bit chilly while we were there but the apartment was always warm upon our return. It was extremely convenient to the subway, clean, quiet and very safe. I would definitely want to stay at Ellie's during my next trip to NYC!
