Small but stylish, this apartment is perfect for a solo traveller. It may be pocket-sized, but the design makes the most of the space. There's a small desk if you're in town on business, a compact kitchenette ideal for post-adventure snacks, and a quaint bedroom where you can relax after sightseeing around The Big Apple. Speaking of, you'll be in the trendy Lower East Side, a short stroll away from multiple subway stations and close to great bars and restaurants. This is a walk-up apartment, though, so climbing stairs is necessary.

About Lower East Side
This once down-trodden corner of Manhattan is now vibrant and stuffed with super-hip bars, vintage shops and bustling, inventive restaurants.
