Greenwich Bolthole

Greenwich Bolthole: New York

If you're architecturally-minded and like the idea of staying in an elegant home with original period features, sash windows and the like, and want to be in a super central, hip part of town, then the Greenwich Bolthole might be just the place. The bedroom might be on the snug side, but the living room has lovely, roomy proportions and is flooded with natural light. It's a great place to come back to and recharge after a hectic day's sightseeing before heading out again to the the vibrant local restaurant and bar scene.


Home truths:
* There's only one proper bedroom, so guests three and four will be on a futon in the living room
* The dining table is pushed up against the wall - ideal for breakfast but perhaps not ideal for a romantic dinner
* There is a pipe near the living room window that is covered in paper in a slightly haphazard and unsightly fashion
*This home is up for long-term rental, the host may ask for permission to show the home to other guests during your stay
*The host may ask for you to fill in some extra documentation on arrival
* There are thirty-two steps to climb to reach the entrance of the apartment
* Some of the paint work could do with some attention - there is general wear in place
*The Wi-Fi can be temperamental
