The loft-style apartment is light-filled, airy and spacious. The retro furniture is in impeccable taste with very comfortable couches and double bed. The open-plan kitchen is well-designed with a bar and dining table and is furnished with high-end fridge. The large tiled bathroom is also stylish; importantly, the shower has ample water pressure. The apartment is a third-floor walkup, a block from the East Broadway subway station, and occupies a perfect location for exploring the Lower East Side. We did not meet Casandra, but communication with her was effortless. Her place is a real discovery.
