As it was the first time for our family in NY, we did not want to stay too far away from Manhattan. The great surprise about Emily’s place is that it’s located at 5 minutes walks from ferry ! It 1000 times more scenic thanks the subway especially during summer time where it’s hot underground… The ferry was an excellent option for us and the rest you can do it walking through the streets… The appartement is fully functionnal and nicely decorated. We were 6 and spacy enough for us. There is also the nice Astoria park at 5 minutes distance walk. The neighbourhood is nice and safe. The value for price is very good compared to the prices they propose in Manhattan… Lastly, Emily is always making sure you are happy while staying at her place. She will turn Superhost in a blink of an eye ! Thanks Emily !
