Thikshan`s apartment is perfectly located to explore every direction of Manhattan. There are a few great avenues and streets just around the corner, so plenty of different food options, such as authentic NYC delis, coffee shops, but also upscale cocktail bars and restaurants in walking distance away. Yet, the building is located in a calm street and a peaceful building.
The flat itself was tidy & clean and the bed was very comfortable. Despite the apartment not being huge, it is perfectly fine for three people and it does provide for everything one needs. The building does not have an elevator, but the staircase is very spacious, so carrying the luggage upstairs should not be a problem!
The communication of Thikshan and his co-host Vasily was exceptionally fast and reliable, and I got the impression that they have an open ear for all your questions about the accommodation, the check-in procedure, and the area we would live in. Thikshan was very caring, he even ascertained whether we were ok after a steam pipe incident in the neighbourhood was published in the news.
Overall, I think that the accommodation made our 4-day NYC stay the perfect experience given the very reasonable price and the comfort and the location of the flat!
