My friends (a family with one child) and I enjoyed our stay very much. The apartment is clean, the hosts are very nice and responsive, and the apartment is near a subway towards Manhattan. There are many delis in the are for a quick breakfast or groceries and some very nice reataurants, in case you want to eat near the apartment.
Great choice if you stay a bit longer in New York, but you do not want to spend too much on expensive hotels in Manhattan.
