Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Hell's Kitchen puts you moments from the Theater District, and this apartment makes a compelling case for staying in as much as going out. Original hardwood floors and period charm give the home a warmth that feels quintessentially New York, while the living room looks out over a canopy of trees rather than the usual wall of concrete. Air conditioning keeps things comfortable in summer, and though it's not the biggest place, it has the kind of pre-war solidity that makes you want to actually slow down between sightseeing.

Home truths
Please note that there are no in-unit laundry facilities here – though there is a launderette a five-minute walk away.

Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
