Michal is a really nice person the location is the best for my opinion, you can walk all the east village and find shopping, restaurants, and SOHO is a 20 min walk. The apartment is small, but has the basics to stay and also its cozy, a typical manhattan apartment were you have to take the stairs up 5 floors. (which wasn't inconvenient for me).
The only thing is that Michal is really in to her schedules and rules, It´s a vegetarian kitchen, NO MEAT ALOWED NEVER, and also you have to be quiet an respect Michal´s hours, also you cannot have any visitors in your room, besides that I think is a nice stay.
