Coming from the UK with young kids we were nervous, but we felt very safe both inside and outside the apartment.
The apartment was very clean, modern and comfortable. There were lots of helpful touches: lots of towels, toiletries, toilet roll, tea/coffee, USB adaptors, night lights etc
We found it easy to get into Manhattan on the F and Q trains and had great days out at the Empire State Building, Times Square and the Intrepid Museum.
We also had lovely days locally in Prospect Park and mooching up and down 5th and 7th Avenue - so many lovely child friendly places.
Amy was very prompt at replying to queries.
We would highly recommend this apartment to anyone wanting a family friendly stay in New York.
