I came to the city for a tiny reunion with a friend who i hadn't seen for a very long time. I was incredibly pleased by the cleanliness and the profesionalism staying at Greg and Adriane's place. They weren't around at the time of my arrival, but the instructions getting in were very clear and very simple. The moment we walked in there was a lovely welcome letter on the door, and a whole list of things to do in the area. Which we also took full advantage of! We are a huge fan of new places to eat and they had some great recommendations.

So with my group, i was with two other 25 year olds and we are all working professionals. We are pretty relaxed individuals and the fact that Greg and Adriane had children and were actively around during the weekend we were there, was totally fine for us. We like to start our days early and take advantage of the day. Their apartment is cute, quite and very clean and very family oriented. The neighborhood is safe and i didn't feel like i was in any danger or felt uncomfortable.

As for the proximity to the city. It is great, and it's almost like you're in Manhattan but it is a distance away from the city. I didn't take the subway during my visit and solely used Uber/Lyft, which was roughly $20-30 to get to east village, almost $60 to get to upper east side. I used to live in Manhattan so i was well aware of what i wanted to do and where we were going to go. If you are kinda new to the city, this would be a great place to start, and Greg and Adriane would help you out on directions on how to get into the city.

I would definitely recommend this place to fellow travelers that want to experience a much more quiet and relaxed experience in New York!
