We had a wonderful stay at Virginia & Steve's upstairs apartment in Midwood. The accommodation was newly renovated (as advertised) and extremely comfortable and clean. Communication and check-in was easy, and the hosts were very friendly and accommodating. The surrounding neighborhood was residential, and felt very safe. However, many of the restaurants closer to main roads were closed making it hard to find food locally, so plan to travel! That aside, we had a great stay and am positive we will book again when back in NYC.
