Both Carlo and his apartment are just wonderful! Carlo was super communicative and quick in his responses, very flexible in check in/out times and even left us with a bottle of wine and chocolates for our arrival! The apartment matches his description and photos exactly, and the location was better than we could have imagined - right in the centre of the LES with great bars and restaurants in a one block radius. And Carlo's recommendations for the local area were spot on :) The apartment was very clean, cosy but roomy enough for the three of us (it would have easily slept two more!) and had all the amenities we needed. It was my first time visiting New York and it was the perfect base for roaming all round Manhattan - it most definitely made our weekend. Would absolutely stay here again!
