We were going to NYC for a quick work trip and this loft was a perfect location near our offices and NYU. We drove to the city and pulled right up to the door and then parked right around the corner in a garage. The loft is beautiful and the pictures described it well. Shelly was extremely responsive to all our questions and we had a lot of questions given this is the first time we used AirBnB for work. We didn't do any cooking, but the kitchen had all the utensils we could need. At one time we had a meeting in the loft and everyone could gather together, or find their own space for quiet reflection. We never heard any street noise. There is a grocery store nearby and endless places to eat, drink and host others within walking distance. Washington Square Park was about three blocks away and the metro just one. I would not hesitate on booking this place the next time we go to NYC!
