Chris's place was the perfect base for our trip to NYC. We really didn't spend much time in the studio but the location, within walking distance to several trains, was great for coming and going as we explored the city. It was also surprisingly quiet- we brought ear plugs expecting general noise of a big city but never used them. LES is a great area - there are tons of coffee, food and drink options within very short walking distance of the studio, without the congestion of some of the more touristy areas of Manhattan. A small feature, but one that we very much appreciated, was the space for hanging clothes. We would absolutely stay here again.
