We loved staying here, it is at the heart of City Island and walking distance to everything. Even "non-walker" walking distance to the essentials: groceries, booze, restaurants, and parking. We had visited CI in the past, but staying here felt like the real deal, pretend to be a local, experience.
What was amazing? Location is excellent, decor is quirky and definitely like visiting a cool friend's place, Amanda is generously willing to let you use any spices, condiments, whatever is in the fridge, etc. Like home! The big bed and the pull-out bed were both very comfortable and well appointed. The apartment is much more spacious than it appears in the photos.
What would I change in perfecto world? The main sleeping area is in the basement. It is a fancy finished basement but I hate waking in a room with minimal natural light. I opened the blinds then realized "oh...everyone on the street can see straight in to me in bed!" So if you are dependent on the sun to wake you, stay away.
