What a fantastic location and a really nice apartment. It suited all of our requirements and was a lovely calm place to return to after the excitement of being out in New York City. Lots of fabulous restaurants and cafe's near by and easy to get on to the metro from Delancey and Essex Street. Blue was a great host in that he made us very welcome when we arrived and had provided a very comfortable bed for us to sleep in - essential!! We really fell in love with the Lower East Side and found it hard to leave. Thank you Blue.
