Staying at Gary’s apartment fulfilled my lifelong dream of living like a West Villager for a few days! Amazing location in one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in America. Wonderful restaurants everywhere. Yes it is loud - it’s in a classic (old) New York building in the middle of a bustling area. Earplugs are a must. But comfortable, cozy and clean. Great morning light, good A/C (it was crazy hot outside!) and delicious coffee downstairs. Gary was super accommodating and answered my questions quickly. I look forward to staying there again!
