We stayed in this snug little nest in late December. Ming and Matt are kind, helpful and smiley hosts, and the apartment and location are the perfect antidote to the thronging crowds choking the streets of Manhattan. You've got a great bagel place down the road, along with a supermarket, laundromat, book shops, bars, restaurants. If I may offer one specific suggestion to the foodies out there, go to Traif for the sliders and forget everything you thought you knew about enjoying food. We honestly cannot recommend this little hideaway highly enough.
