Beyond a wonderful place to stay! Stayed for one month over Christmas while visiting family nearby. The apartment is even better than the listing appears - immaculate, working fireplace, new, comfy beds and beautiful furniture. Having lived in Manhattan for years, it was wonderful to be able to enjoy peace & quiet at all times - including the sounds of birds (blue jays & red finches from the garden). Location is optimal: wonderful local food shops, supermarkets, great restaurants, access to the promenade & park and the numerous subway lines all within a short walk. Manhattan is one stop away and a <15-min uber ride. Neighborhood is both very safe and is delightful to walk around to look at 19th brownstones and cobbled streets. As I was looking for a one-month stay, I did a lot of research - this is both a lovely home from home and actually, even better than the listing. Great value too. John & Ania were great hosts, available if and when needed. Highly recommend, 5+ stars all round!
