This was my second stay at this wonderful apartment and I plan to book another stay within the next few months. The location is fabulous and the apt. is bright and cheery! Amazingly, you have complete privacy even though the owners live on the top floor of this beautiful brownstone. (Judy and Alex are only a ring or text away to answer your questions or respond to requests and are incredibly lovely people!) The modern kitchen with a full sized refrigerator, incredible stove/oven AND dishwasher --not to mention granite countertops--is such a treat to have in New York where eating out for every meal can be quite pricey. (My only request would be some additional pots/pans and dinner ware for guests like me who like to cook and have some meals at home.) The biggest bonus for long term guests is the full sized washer and dryer! The bottom line is this apt. is cute and cozy with all the amenities of a full sized home and I can't wait to book my next visit! By the way, if you worry about street noise, NO WORRIES! This flat is located on a side street and with closed windows I never heard a thing. Wonderful restaurants, coffee shops, and cafes just steps out your door, as well as grocery stores and boutiques that offer everything you could ever want/need. Subway stations nearby and easy to access virtually any line. (Note: We always rent the second bedroom for our teen aged son who wants his own private space. It works beautifully!) Thank you Judy and Alex!
