This apartment was perfect for my needs. It was quiet, very comfortable and well thought out with useful storage and plenty of space, with the wonderful garden. It was clean and modern which made for a relaxing stay. Nicolas checked in regularly over email which made me feel welcome. Right next door is a corner shop and 5 mins walk is a wonderful friendly Italian deli which made heavenly baguettes. My only issue was with transport to Manhattan. There are a few different options, but they require some planning so it's not always straightforward if you need to get into town for a specific time. Having said that, it's well connected within a 15-min walk of the PATH train which takes you Downtown/Greenwich Village in about 30 mins.
