Patrick was a lovely host! Very kind and flexible. We had traffic issues coming in and not only he graciously waited for us being 3 hours late, he also allowed late check out which was really above and beyond. His place is simply furnished but has everything you need including a piano and a strong AC (we came in the middle of a heatwave). 3rd floor was really not as bad as you might think, and the area is centrally located just a few minutes from Soho and east village, and right in the middle of Chinatown/little Italy. Highly recommended!
