This apartment is a refreshing little oasis in the heart of New York's Lower East Side. It is located within a former New York City public school, converted years ago to apartments - which explains the wonderful high ceilings! Dominick's place is decorated in a minimalist style in soothing whites and creams, very calming and peaceful. We were there in the heat of July and the air conditioning kept us nice and cool. We were just steps away from the many exciting bars and restaurants in the area... as well as the fascinating Tenement Museum and art galleries like the Richard Taittinger Gallery. Dominick was very helpful with recommendations for the area. I stayed here with my husband and two daughters, and we had plenty of space and were very comfortable. Recommend!
