Awesome place. However if anyone in your group has issues with their knees be aware you will be climbing stairs . Very quiet location and convenient to the Staten Island Ferry. We loved the high ceilings, arched wood door and windows and beautiful design in the wood floors. Master bath on upper level was massive and beautiful. The other bathroom is off the kitchen on the main floor so anyone in the other bedrooms upstairs would have to go downstairs to shower or use restroom. Architecture was very impressive, this would have been the upper class residence in its day. Master bed was extremely comfortable.
