Staying at this clean, spacious, and tastefully decorated apartment was an excellent choice. Even though I was by myself, it is perfect for two couples, or for one couple with two children. The area is closer to New York City than some areas in New York City, just 5 minutes by subway, or ferry (my personal preference). There is a grocery store just across the street, and a very convenient bar and grill. I have lived in the area before, but for someone who hasn't, he or she must try staying here as an alternative to a New York city hotel, or apartment. Beata is a very efficient and mindful host. Check in and check out was flawless. I highly recommend this experience.
