Nicole's place was in such a good location in a beautiful old building. It's small, just as described, and worked perfectly for us and our 2 young children for a short stay. There was even a little playground across the road open to the public outside of school hours. The kitchen was pretty basic, but was fine for a short stay. My toast-addicted 3 yr old was disappointed there was no toaster but she got over it haha. We walked to the Natural History Museum, Central Park, and the Met, and the subway was really close too.
