Can’t imagine another place working any better than the Schafer house. Eight of us spent a very comfortable time there. We were there to have and attend a wedding on the property. The wedding was held on the roof deck, which is also a great space to watch the sun set behind Manhattan. The garden patio behind the home is quiet and a very pleasant place to sit in the sun with your morning coffee. The home was clean and nicely decorated. The kitchen is large and worked well to host the wedding and family dinners. We were very comfortable in the neighborhood and felt safe walking the streets at night. There are restaurants and grocery stores within walking distance.
The host of the house was responsive if we had a question or issue, and available when needed. Overall we would rate this stay as positive and would definitely consider renting this property again in the future.
