We absolutely loved our stay at Rachael's. There were 8 of us; 4 adults and 3 children (8, 6, & 4). We weren't cramped at all and easily had quiet spaces for anyone that was sleeping while others were awake and lively.

When we asked the kids what their favorite part of the trip was my Granddaughter (4 yrs) said, "we stayed at that house." It was really great for the kids. We did lots of walking to lots of sites. So having the morning and eves in Rachael's comfy home was amazing. They loved playing with her children's toys and reading their books.

Rachael left great instructions for the house and suggestions for neighborhood eats. Loved Giuseppina's. Saw Debbie Masur and her husband there (love Extra Virgin); forgot they live in the neighborhood. That was fun.

The house is incredibly clean and well organized. The rooms and beds were so comfortable. The shower and bathtub upstairs are divine. A number of us had nice long soaks. Oh! And you can see the Empire State Building from the children's room at night (all lit up).

Rachael was very responsive to our needs even though our stay was during the holidays. By the way, the location is ideal for doing things in Brooklyn or Manhattan, even Staten Island if you have a yen.

I can highly recommend a stay in this really comfortable and thoughtful home.
