I’ve had two wonderful stays at Zachary‘s place. He’s a good communicator, and check in was no problem both times, including when he needed to show up to give me the keys. Totally accommodating with my arrival time, friendly, and obviously proud of the work he’s done on this apartment. It’s one of the larger ones I’ve stayed in in NYC, wonderful morning light, some quirky character as one expects on the lower Eastside, Close to everything you need – – excellent restaurants, casual delis, the bigger stores on 14th St. close by. The room itself is small but comfortable, With thoughtful touches like a variety of charging cords, pens, shoe rack, an umbrella. The AC worked great and while loud, provided white noise that helps to cover up the street noise. If you are a sensitive sleeper, you may want to bring earplugs. I like that the AC can be directed so it does not blow directly onto the bed. The large living/dining room flooded with morning light was perfect for my yoga practice. Roommate Dillon and his cat were friendly, unobtrusive Presences and I felt safe as a solo woman traveler. I stay overnight on the lower Eastside frequently for work and this will become one of my regular stays.
