If you are visiting NYC with small children then this place is ideal. The apartment is very spacious, safe and accessible with only two steps at the entrance. I travelled with a five month old and couldn't have wished for more. The apartment is very well equipped, the garden is wonderful, and the hosts are fabulous. The street is very quiet compared to Manhattan and just around the corner are shops, bars and restaurants. The station, which is less then a ten minute walk away, has elevators and trains to almost anywhere. This made using the subway far easier than I had imagined with a baby. The information provided by Timothy in the welcome pack is brilliant. I tried out a couple of the recommendations and was not disappointed. I really hope to have cause to visit New York again soon just so as we can stay again.
