We’re a family of four with two kids and we’ve spent 17 nights in this beautiful apartment. Parents who travel with kids – and we love to travel – know about the challenges that this can involve. However, its safe to say that we felt right from the beginning that we were in good hands. After a long haul flight from Europe, we were welcomed with milk and bread in the fridge and coffee, oatmeal and other supplies in the pantry. The apartment is lovely, cosy and huge and has everything you’ll ever need, so we felt right at home. The kitchen is well equipped with lots of tools, all kinds of saucepans, skillets, bowls, a coffee maker etc. Our hosts went far and beyond to make our stay unforgettable – they even provided cots for our little ones and kid friendly soap. Due to some rain we spent a couple of days indoors. A couple of days indoors with kids – scary right? Nope, no problem whatsoever in this apartment: Our kids were happy campers and never got bored with all the toys, the crayons and books that were provided. We highly recommend this place for travelling families (and for everyone who’s looking for a wonderful apartment with all the bells and whistles) – not just because of what it has to offer inside but also because of its location: A big playground for all ages is literally just across the street with grocery stores, bodegas and drug stores all near by. A bagel store, where we bought bagels every morning is just a 3 minute walk away and it’s right next door to a pizza place that makes amazing New York pizza. Oh, and the subway station (R-train) is also just a stroll up the street and it goes directly to north Brooklyn and Manhattan. So guys, thank you very much for having us, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and hope to be back one day.
