The apartment was fantastic for 3 adults and 2 toddlers. It was easy to get all of our gear into the apartment, had a very large foyer outside of the apartment proper for shoes, strollers, etc. Inside, the apartment was very nice with good furniture, high end bathrooms (Duravit/ Grohe) useful kitchen with nice applicances. It was also spotless (even under the bed that we moved to put up 2 pack and plays). The downstairs area was great so our nanny had her own space -- felt almost like 2 separate apartments.

The manager of the apartment was great! She saved us a parking space in front of the building and was extremely responsive to e-mails, texts and phone calls. Met us at the apartment and walked through everything. Also was great to have a washer and dryer to do a couple loads of laundry.

Finally, location was fantastic. I lived on the Upper West Side for 5 years and everthing was nearby. Zabars, Gristedes, Macoron Parlour, Levain Bakery, Fairway, Sarabeth's, b Cafe, Corvo (cool for drinks), etc.
