This is a really big apartment for New York on the 3rd floor. The stairs need to be taken into account if traveling with older people or people with mobility issues. We found them to be a non-issue. The check-in was excellent, they let us put our luggage in hours before the check-in time. The location is very good and the communication perfect. The decor is very personal and might not be to everyone's taste but this is AirBnB!
