Located in a fun and lively part of Manhattan, there is everything you would need to live here forever! The apartment is huge with a lovely garden area (only shared with one other apartment) out the back door and great food and drinks out the front. There are literally dozens of great restaurants within walking distance. There is access to a communal outdoor sitting area on the second floor.
Being on the first floor, access is easy and quick. I was here for several weeks recovering from surgery, so this was all important to me. The walk-in shower was a big blessing. One of my favorite things was being able to have my dog with me and to have flowering gardens and trees nearby for walking. The dog parks in Washington Square Park were fun, too!
The weekends can be a bit noisy because the apartment is on a busy street with lots of social activity, but that adds to the energy of living here. With the windows closed, and especially in the middle bedroom which is insulated from the street by the main bedroom, the sound can be minimized.
James stayed in touch and was always available. He is pleasant and non-intrusive, but always helped me immediately when needed.
I loved staying here and hope to return!
