Thikshan's apartment is in the Gramercy Park area, only a few blocks from the heart of the East Village. The location couldn't have been better for walking to see the traditional sights but also exploring the trendy, newer neighborhoods downtown. The apartment itself is a standard NYC apartment (old) but everything worked perfectly, it was very warm, and sparkling clean. There was another guest in the space while I was there but we never saw each other. I would definitely stay here again.
