Is there anything more quintessentially New York than exposed brick walls? We don't think so, and this studio flat in Gramercy Park delivers on that front. This apartment may be snug, but it has plenty of style – we're obsessed with the orange sofa, for instance – and the space is super cosy. There's even a patio with a lush outdoor sofa and a picnic table, which is rare for this part of town. When the weather is nice, sit out there with a glass of wine and soak up the sunshine, whiling away the sultry summer evenings. We're not going to deny that the kitchen is pretty compact, but that's all part of the charm of living like a true New Yorker. It's well-stocked with everything you need, but seeing as space is tight, we think you'll lean towards dining out. If that's the case, you're in luck – Gramercy Park has an array of upscale eateries and trendy bars for you to try. Also nearby is the farmer's market at Union Square – a fifteen-minute walk – which has fresh fruit and veg if you decide to rustle up a meal. This is a quieter spot, but it's still close to all the sights – you can walk to Times Square in half an hour, but 23rd Street Station is a ten-minute stroll if you'd rather take the subway. Home truths: *This is a studio apartment, so there's no separate living area *We mean it when we say the kitchen is compact and narrow – we think it's better suited to rustling up quick meals as opposed to preparing full dinners *This area is in central Manhattan, so expect to hear sounds of traffic and construction *Self check-in is available here*This host requires your check-in to be within 7 days from the last booking.
