Picture perfect place to stay. We were a family with 4 adults and 3 kids coming for a Christmas season stay near the city but didn’t want to spend the night midtown in NYC.
The neighborhood was quaint and festively decorated for Christmas with wonderful, free street-side parking near the house. When we entered the home it smelled crisp and clean (like a hotel), but looked like a home.
Holiday music played in the background, there was a merry Christmas greeting on the window, and the host left some snacks for the kids (marshmallows and roasting sticks and popcorn) on the kitchen island.
We loved watching Christmas movies at night with the family in the warm rooms, sleeping in the queen sized bunk beds with our kids and saved the other room with the queen sized beds for my parents.
The location was perfect for us. It was a 10 minutes drive away to local attractions like The Holiday Train show at the New York Botanical Garden and Little Italy on Arthur Ave for Italian bakeries and dining.
We also just drove into midtown but could have taken the train or bus to spend the day in the city doing all of the typical tourist things around holiday season. But it felt good to get out of the hustle and sleep back in a quiet neighborhood.
Wonderful time and would definitely recommend!!!!
