Adam's appartment is beautiful. The street was safe and Adam and Sarah are both calm and sweet people.
There are some small things though:
- The children (and the dog) are awake very early and run around the house a lot. This sound resonates strongly as the appartment is below there home. The dog also barks a lot. We often woke before 7 a.m. because of this.
- The space is pretty, but a little dusty. Also the bathroom is somewhat small and not great for tall people because of the tightly placed toilet. The bathroom sink is almost unusable because of its size. The kitchen sink is close though.
- They claim the tapwater is one of the best, but to us (we're Europeans) it smelled and tasted heavily chlorinated.
- The bed is a little on the small side and the material of the mattress does form to your body which causes you and your partner to roll to the middle a bit
- The street the appartment is on is great, but you must be mindful not to take the wrong street. The metro/trains are not really close and streets leading there not really comfortable. We also did not always feel safe the first few stops in the metro. If you have a car, it's fine.
- Parking in the street is not always easy. The street can get very busy with not a place in sight which leaves the only option to double park your car.
We enjoyed New York and were glad we had a nice, calm space to go to.
It was fine, but other than that not our best experience.
