Gideons place was exactly as described. It was my husband and I with our new 3 month old baby, and my husbands mother. We had a great, comfortable and very safe stay at this apartment. Gideon quickly & patiently answered all my nervousness new-mum questions over 6 months as they popped into my head (thank-you!). We felt safe at all times. We thought the place was very spacious, especially by New York standards. TV, Netflix and internet worked a treat. It was a good 12 minute walk to the train station, so I would suggest it could be a bit challenging if you have mobility issues but a very pleasant and safe walk otherwise. Great amenities are all within a 3-10 minute walk too (bakery, restaurants, grocery stores, coffee etc). The apartment had a very functional kitchen and accessories for cooking at home. We hardly had to eat out (cooked breakfast and dinner, and took packed lunches around town). The washing machine was speedy and the dryer was extremely fast too. We had a lot of washing with our baby, but it was a breeze to do it every night. There’s a great park across the road for kids to play in. The large local street, Smith St, has lots of funky restaurants. I could go on and on... but I’ll stop there.
Thanks for a lovely week Gideon!
