We have just been at Julien and Diana's apartment with our 3 children and I have only one comment: WONDERFUL HOLIDAY! On many respects: the neighborhood is very quiet and in the area is easy to park if you want to rent a car; the apartment is very cozy and immaculate (and I am very picky!!) with all the amenities a family might need; Julien and Diana, who live downstairs with their adorable child, are the perfect hosts, extremely friendly, nice and helpful. I would recommend this solution to any family looking for a home away from home in NY and personally will keep it as MY TARGET for any next vacation there!
