Samuel, has been a great host. Any questions we had he was quick to answer. The place is located in one of the most vibrant areas. Just minutes walking from east village, Chinatown, and Brooklyn Bridge. The area is packed full of great eats and bars. The décor is done in loft boho style, which creates a very nice relaxed atmosphere. The subway is right next door, which makes it feel like true New York stay. If you think of the deep rumble as thunder rolling it even becomes soothing. That is not to say that it's quiet, its not.
