I found this guesthouse to be more than I expected. It was eclectic, comfortable and clean. The staff was very cordial and helpful. It is located in a wonderful part of Greenwich Village, just up the block from the fabulous Magnolia Bakery and the specialty stores of Bleeker Street. There are plenty of interesting restaurants that have the European feeling that cater to fine tastes and in the better weather, some offer al fresco dining. In the midst of the largest city in the world, this is a respite from the sometimes overwhelming energy that is the Big Apple.

My mum, brother and I had a great stay here and you really can't beat it for an amazing location.

I will be honest and say the rooms were a little more shabby than they looked in the photos on the website, but they were very clean and comfortable and because it was an apartment, we really felt like proper New Yorkers living the Village!

Navigating the steep, wonky stairs was difficult after walking the length and breadth of New York every day for 6 days, but it became something to laugh about rather than something to moan about!

There were lots of nice places to eat on your doorstep, loads of really lovely shops to peruse (most quite pricey - unless you want to treat yourself - and why not!), subway stations nearby to get further uptown and it felt like a really safe place to wander at night. We would all definitely stay here again.

Wanted to stay centrally in new York without the stress of congested traffic, noise and the usual sterile hotel environments. Found West Eleventh Townhouse through the web. It is located on walking distance from all those spectacular and typical New York events you don't want to miss during a short visit.
Tube around the corner.
As a frequent traveler I am used to the fact that you will always feel a bit compromised for finding a central place. Not here though. This excellent place to stay is located between 7th Avenue and Bleecker Street in the "Village", one of the most attractive neighborhoods to walk and shop.
After a long intensive day in the city we experienced West eleventh townhouse as not only a comfortable place to be, it felt like coming home every time again, as if we lived there.

My work took me to NY for a month in '06 and my employers found this accomodation for me.
It was quiet, comfortable, very clean and the owners of the townhouse were very welcoming and gracious. Even inviting me to attend their intimate July 4th barbeque and to have a private chat in the sitting room one afternoon.
Everything I needed during the month was available within steps of the front door.
I plan to see the play Equus in Oct. and won't hesitate to book a room at West 11th once again!

This was my fourth stay at this charming boutique hotel. The West Village location is perfect, close to my work, tons of wonderful places to eat, quiet and very secure. I'm able to relax and feel at home when I return to my comfortable and spacious suite. The staff is friendly, helpful, always trying to meet your needs, and available by phone at any time. If you're looking for something different, not the usual boxy, sterile NYC hotel room-- this is a great choice. I know I will be back!
