Just returned from a fantastic family trip to NY, staying in Sunshine & Remo's apartment. The facilities are great, just as described. The train into Manhattan takes about 20-30 mins, lots of stops but an easy journey. There's a shop nearby and restaurants about 20 mins walk away or you can get a subway to Brooklyn Heights or DUMBO. Some train and road noise which might be a problem if you are a light sleeper. All in all a great find for a reasonably priced stay in NYC.
