We've lived in NYC for over 40 years - 35 in Chelsea on W. 22nd St. We are available to answer any of your questions - about restaurants, tourist attractions, theater, galleries, our neighborhood and the city at large - but though we're on premises you don't have to worry about avoiding us if you'd rather deal with the city on your own.

What living in NYC could look like

Midway between Macy’s and the Meatpacking District, you stay in the downstairs garden apartment of a 19th C brownstone on a quiet, residential street. It is not operated by some agency, instead your hosts, Karen and Paul, live upstairs. They are very helpful and gallant...More

Lovely stay in a great area of Manhattan

The brownstone is situated on what is surely the prettiest street in gentrified Chelsea, smack in the middle between two avenues, which means you get the benefit of proximity to convenient subways and wonderful restaurants without constant city street noise. We stayed in the large...More

Thank you Adele for this fabulous review. The only corrections I would add is that the table extends to accommodate more guests. Unfortunately the garden is not available to this larger apartment, only the studio apartment has access. Karen

About the neighbourhood
Historic brownstone neighborhood. A block away from Chelsea art galleries. A half-block away from the High Line. Scores of restaurants within walking distance. Chelsea Market is blocks away.
Getting around
Great transportation alternatives - buses up, down and crosstown at the corner and the subway a block and a half away. Penn Station is a five minute taxi ride, a one-stop subway trip, or a ten minute walk. So much of downtown is within convenient walking distance, the best way to experience the city.
