Our family of 4 adults arrived in New York on the 4th of July for a 10 day stay. This was a great place to stay the neighbourhood was a joy with places to eat to suit every budget with plenty to do and great night life. Kristina our host was lovely and helpful and flexible around arrival and departure even calling us a cab for the airport. The flat was as expected and the air conditioning was essential at this hot and humid time of year. The beds where comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped for a city stay. Only criticism was that the soft furnishings were a little tired and the sound on the TV wasn't great but hey, who wants to watch that, your in New York. Easy access to Manhattan on the L train which is $2.75 per journey slightly cheaper with the (essential) metro card. We would happily stay here again as a great base in a trendy area.
