We stayed here with our 2 children in late summer and had a lovely time. Liz is very responsive and communicative. The apartment is very tastefully decorated and the garden is lovely and peaceful, especially when having guests over for a BBQ. We didn't use if often though since it was very buggy this year. The beds are super comfortable and the kitchen is adequately stocked. Only one word of caution for anyone sensitive to noise, the ceilings are thin and one hears everything above. The main bedroom faces the street, which is generally quiet except for the occasional roar of garbage trucks at 6:30am! This is the perfect neighborhood for anyone visiting NYC. It offers refuge from the bustle of Manhattan yet is close enough to be downtown within 15 minutes.
