I'm a creative professional, and I try to let out my place whenever I head out of town for a week at a time. Okay, now onto the apartment:
This large one-bedroom is rare in Manhattan for this price point. It gets a lot of light, and feels private and cozy in the middle of the craziness of the city. It's on the border between Soho and Nolita, nestled between shopping boutiques, restaurants, cafes, and nation's best cupcakes according to several news outlets (!!) Parking is scarce but not impossible in the neighborhood. There are about a dozen subways within a 10 block radius.
The apartment is large for the neighborhood. There's a separate bedroom, a living room, a kitchen, and a small bathroom. There is a LOT of light that comes in, and the space is clean and well-maintained.
The street is fairly quiet for the middle of Manhattan, both day and night (especially during the winter). That said, the heaters are old along with the rest of the building, and sometimes rattle. If you're a light sleeper, a pair of ear plugs should cover it, but if you're extremely noise sensitive bear that in mind.
It is a 5th floor walk-up, and does not have an elevator or buzzer on the ground floor. Also, it is a bit unconventional, but the shower is located in the kitchen. The water pressure and heat is great, it's just...in the kitchen! Clean towels provided, of course. The neighbors all keep to themselves. Trash and recycling are all available downstairs on the ground floor. Gas stove.
No cable but plasma screen TV that hooks up to HDMI. The wifi is strong, so you should be fine for streaming or zoom calls.
We ask for a $250 security deposit upfront for the short-term rental. The deposit is fully returned once you leave assuming no damage to the apartment.
