Alecza has clearly put tons of thought and effort into exceeding expectations in every department with this gorgeous apartment. I stayed there with my 2 daughters (10 and 7 years old) and we all LOVED it. The beds and pillows are super comfortable (a detail that makes all the difference). The kitchen has everything you need to make your own meals (I much prefer home made food and was so grateful for all the kitchen/cooking items that were supplied in the kitchen). My girls really enjoyed playing in the back yard and kept talking about how luxurious the apartment is :-). The neighborhood is really nice too, definitely a peaceful sanctuary while visiting a city like New York! The drive to downtown Manhattan wasn’t bad at all- about a half hour each way. For the quality of the apartment and service Alecza provides (and the quiet neighborhood) the drive is well worth it. My daughters made me promise we’d return with my wife for a longer visit and that’s a promise I plan to keep! Huge thanks to Alecza and congrats on an amazing AirBnB. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Highly recommend!!
