Everything ok, nice reception, Claudia response everything , quickly... regards

This apartment was the perfect location to explore NYC, with so much to enjoy on your doorstep or a short stroll away. The best of Lower Manhattan's eateries, coffee shops, and bars are minutes away, whether you are looking for brunch, dinner or just liquid refreshment. Access to the subway is perfect for those trips further afield too. The apartment itself is a really good size, has postcard views, and feels like a home from home with a very well appointed kitchen and all the comforts of modern living (including numerous takeout menus for a night in !). The host was very helpful and a pleasure to deal with. The only downside for those not used to it, is that traffic noise is 24 hours - but sound insulation is good & it's NYC, so that's to be expected. 5 Stars. Excellent apartment.

The unit at 199 Bowery was exactly what we were looking for. It was equipped with all the necessities. So nice to come back to after shopping, exploring & Broadway Shows! We really enjoyed meeting & talking with the doormen. So friendly & courteous! Thanks Claudia & Paul for making our trip so enjoyable with your rental! Janice & Jim Eyerman

Claudia's apartment was a good base for our 10-night girls' trip to NYC. The apartment was located within an easy walking distance of several subway stops and we navigated Manhattan and Brooklyn with ease. There were tons of great restaurants, shopping and various services (groceries and laundry service) within a few blocks of the apartment as is typical of Manhattan neighborhoods. The closet and drawer space was more than enough to accommodate four ladies who brought too many clothes! Claudia was responsive during the booking process and did respond promptly when we had issues related to the excessive heat in the apartment. However, it would have been nice if she had checked in with us within the first few days of our stay as a courtesy to see how we were managing. The doormen for the building were all courteous and sweet and offered a smile and conversation each time we left or returned to the building. As the apartment is "downtown" it was extraordinarily noisy so earplugs are a must if you want a restful sleep. We did experience issues with the heating system and despite the owners' attempt to have this alleviated our only reprieve was to open the windows to excessive and incessant honking. This was my seventh stay in New York and this was one of the noisiest neighborhoods I have experienced. The restaurant and nightclub directly below this unit did not help! We had an extremely busy itinerary during our stay so our time in the apartment was primarily to sleep and prepare breakfast before heading out for the day. The kitchen was well equipped, however, a larger coffee machine would be more appropriate. The Keurig machine advertised was not provided. The apartment, by New York standards, was massive and offered big windows in the living room with views to Soho and the One World Trade Center and views of the sunset. This unit could be improved with more lighting, especially in the living area and rearrangement of furnishing to allow for a table and four chairs. The apartment accommodates four to sleep but only three to eat together. The building and unit were described as new construction but this was a remodel at best with some touch-ups on the walls needed. The antique intercom phone at the entrance was a dead giveaway as to the age of the building! We thank Claudia for sharing her apartment with us for our time fabulous time in Manhattan.

If you are looking for a spacious, clean and beautiful apartment in Nolita, look no further. Claudia and Paul's place was fantastic. We stayed in this apartment for a week and there were four of us. It's hard to find an apartment of this size in NYC so this is truly a gem. It is conveniently located and you are in walking distance to many great restaurants in the area. Whole Foods Market is just around the corner so we would get groceries and make breakfast in the morning. The kitchen was well-equipped. The doorman was friendly and we all felt safe in the building. Claudia was very responsive and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place.

Just perfect for us. It was our fiftieth anniversary and our kids stayed with us. Plenty of room two bedrooms two baths in the perfect location. Went to great restaurants (most recommended by Claudia) and walked every time. Just loved that it was located so close to lower east side, Chinatown, Little Italy and Soho. One of our best vacations ever! Nolita is now our favorite area in NYC!

Everything as advertised, quick and efficient responses to any questions, great location.

A few blocks from Chinatown and the heart of Little Italy, this place is convenient to neighborhood restaurants, groceries, and the subway. We stayed 8 nights and we will stay here again when visiting New York.

The apartment is great. It's spotlessly clean and all rooms are of a good size. The facilities in the apartment and the building itself are excellent. There wasn't anything that we needed in the apartment that wasn't there. A new restaurant has opened on the streeet level in the same building its seriously good and very cool. It's called Vandal. If you are a light sleeper bring ear plugs as being on a busy street it can get noisy. The location of the apartment is excellent.

We had a really wonderful stay here, for almost 3 weeks. The location is so handy to the grocery, wine and paper store, the New Museum, one block from NOLITA and lots of action around. Paul and Claudia were great to work with. We have very few issues -changing a light bulb- and it was addressed immediately. The condo has everything you need to make meals, and restaurants abound if you don't want to cook. The view of the Freedom Center and all the street activity was great to watch. My husband had orthopedic surgery and it kept him entertained : ) And the FDR Highway is right there! I can't say enough about the fabulous on site staff. They were so kind and helpful. They helped us send out our laundry, held the door for my husband and were always chipper. If there is a negative, it is the street noise. While we were there, there was road construction and construction of a building next door. There was no noise from inside the building. We quickly used the " White Noise" on our phones and the problem was solved. I would recommend this place in a heart beat.
