We are a small family (2 kids -- 8 & 11yrs old)... and we absolutely loved our 5 night stay at Yair's place, everything we hoped it would be and def could have stayed longer. The apartment is just as nice as the photos, but the high ceilings really add space and style :-), and the outside patio/table give you breathing room! Park Slope is def family friendly and the apt is right down the street from the Prospect Park playground and walking distance to the zoo. So many options for dining, laundry across the street, etc. We preferred staying outside of the hustle and bustle of Manhattan, even though the bulk of our activities/sight seeing was in the City. The apartment is conveniently located to Subway station.. we got the week pass ($31 pp) and mostly caught the F train straight to manhattan 25-30 mins most days. We would definitely recommend this place.
