Neil's place was very homie. It was very nicely decorated and fee very much like I was coming back to my own home every night. The location was great! Trendy and right in the heart of Lower East Side Manhattan. It was easy to get to the subway station to go anywhere in the city. Restaurant and bar options was endless. Overall I would totally stay here again! Because location was in such a trendy neighborhood with bars and a museum near by, street noise could not be avoided. It didn't bother me, but just be aware you can hear street noise from people giving tours across the street, or walking around at night bar hopping.
