We really enjoyed staying at Elle's apt and would happily stay there again! It's in a terrific neighborhood, with great cafes and restaurants nearby, and very close to public transportation. Whether you're a first-time visitor, or a former local like me, it's a great apt to make your base in NYC. Elle goes out of her way to make you feel comfortable, before, during, and even at the end of your stay. The apartment was really well stocked with fluffy towels, amenities, books etc. and Elle checked in with us regularly to make sure everything was ok. Her assistant, Hannah was waiting for us (after a very delayed flight) when we first arrived and made sure our check-in was smooth and easy, which we appreciated after 24+ hours of travel. Both Elle and Hannah were just a phone call away if needed, which was great. Thanks Elle, we had a wonderful time!
