We had a lovely week with our family (us + two kids, 15 and 11) at Sara's place. It has all the facilities you need, is close to subway station Carroll street and is in a quiet and very charming area with beautiful houses. Several trees were in bloom when we were there. Lovely. So much better than staying in a hotel. The kids also loved the dog, Rose. We do hope to return to New York and if so, we will definitely try to book this appartment again.
