We stayed in December and realized that the location was key. If you’re looking to escape the mad rush of holiday tourism without losing the experience of NY at Christmas, then I would highly recommend this apartment.
It was a relief to escape the crowded sidewalks and get a taste of what it’s like to be a local. The apartment is beautiful, clean, and relaxing.
The nearest subway is about 10-15m away, so you may need to consider this if you have personal constraints. Otherwise, it’s a great way to experience the neighborhood.
As for food, the rule of thumb is if you see a line of people inside, then it’s really good - especially since they are locals. Prince Street Pizza was the best!
We would definitely consider staying here again.
