After a 4-hour train ride and an epic battle with New York's non-functional subway system (with a cranky 2-year-old!), we arrived at Melissa's Place. After that exhausting schlep in unseasonably warm temperatures, I could only think of two words: cold beer. We settled into the adorable apartment and I opened the fridge. Cold. Beer. And it only got better from there. Melissa's apartment was everything we needed. It was clean and beautifully designed and accented. The attention to detail was so impressive, as it seemed there was nothing that our hosts didn't think of. We especially appreciate the way the place was set up for our toddler. Melissa provided a super-cute mattress with bedding and toys for our little guy. He had a blast playing with everything in the toy bin and slept great both nights. The apartment made our fun, but hectic weekend in New York comfortable and comforting. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!
