This cozy, comfortable place was a perfect home away from home for our little family of 3 (2 adults and 1 11-year-old). It was nice to relax there after long days of walking /exploring Manhattan. The ferry was a short walk so very convenient for our exploration of the city. Great touches included great coffee, beautiful dishes and well-stocked kitchen in general, TV with all the channels you could ever want, nice quality soap and shampoo in the bathroom, and Ondine even gave our daughter a sweet Christmas gift as we departed. We were warmly greeted and oriented and they were always available to answer questions. Overall, a great place to stay if you want a homey place close to the city!
