Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This home is a busy mix of eclectic furniture, loft windows, exposed brick walls and Yucca plants. The bedrooms have a bit of dorm-like feel and the beds aren’t the most luxurious, but this is still a great spot in the heart of the East Village. Although this area is a little disconnected from the rest of Manhattan, it is best known these days for exciting nights out at trendy bars, and great restaurants. We recommend staying here if you’re happy to explore this very authentic and vibrant neighbourhood.

About Lower East Side
This once down-trodden corner of Manhattan is now vibrant and stuffed with super-hip bars, vintage shops and bustling, inventive restaurants. Architecturally it's a real mix and can feel radically different from one block to the next - trendy glass buildings are flanked by pre-war tenements, a contrast that only adds to the area’s unique identity.
