Pascal's place was just perfect. The neighborhood is extremely lively--and convenient. Close to Soho, the East Village, even Williamsburg. The apartment itself is very charming and spacious. There was even a living room that made a terrific, which was excellent for my husband and I as we were writing while we were there. The apartment is on the 6th floor of a walk-up, which we got used to, so it wasn't an issue. We would definitely stay in this place again!
