Description Ritzy Reverie: New York

Nestled in the heart of downtown Gramercy, this apartment makes a great base whether you’re in the city for business or pleasure. Sure, the stripped-back and fuss-free style may not be to everyone’s taste, and it’s quite small in places – the bedroom and kitchen, in particular. But that aside, you’ll find all the essentials needed for a relaxing stay. In the area for work? The dedicated workplace is just the spot to catch up on emails when you’re away from the office. There's also a sofa bed for the third and fourth guests, though as space is lacking, we think this pad is better for two.

Home truths:
*At full occupancy, two guests (ideally children) will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area. It will beat the expense of lounge space, so if you'd prefer plenty of room for socialising, we think this home is better suited to couples or solo travellers.
*Parking in New York can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. Light sleepers may want to pack earplugs.
*There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home.
*The kitchenette is compact. Having said that, it has everything needed for rustling up light bites and you'll find plenty of restaurants nearby.
