This is a really nice place to feel the spirit of Lower East side -- we almost felt like being in a movie. Make sure you visit Kat'z place (10 mins walk from the place -- Carlo has it on the info sheet for the guests) as thisbis where 'When Harry Met Sally' scenes were shot. We really liked it. Also there ais a variety of both breakfast and dinner places right by the place.
One thing to note: the appartment is on the 5th floor w/o an elevator so get ready to carry your suitcases all the way up/down.
