Reka and Erin were excellent hosts. Erin met us upon arrival and talked us through the neighbourhood and the apartment. The room was very comfortable and the flat is well equipped, clean and welcoming. The balcony was extra special and we enjoyed our night drinks with the downtown view.
The neighbourhood is lively and interesting. We loved the vibe and explored many cafes and restaurants. The apartment is a bit of a walk to the nearest subway but there is a bus stop really nearby which we used a couple of times with ease. The only downside of the neighbourhood is the noise at night - especially with the windows open which was essential in the heat. The apartment is worth it though and Reka and Erin are wonderful hosts - we would definitely recommend this apartment for a stay in New York and would return again.
