Chris was a great host, he was easy to get ahold of for the key hand-off and accommodating on odd my check-in and check-out schedule for my trip. I was in town to visit my daughter and this place was a perfect central location just steps from countless restaurants, bars, and shops. NYC is open for business and the vibe on the street was electric with summer fun and good vibes, all the neighborhood restaurants serving good times with plenty of outdoor seating. Tompkins Square park offered a great little haven of greenery and people watching. The space itself had everything I needed with a full kitchen and at least 3 ways to make coffee, there was even cold water waiting in the Brita in the fridge, a welcome relief with the hot and humid New York summer. The air conditioning was also a welcome feature. Despite being so close to the action, the street itself was quiet and I had no trouble sleeping. I would definitely recommend staying here.
