Lisa and James were the perfect hosts, and this apartment more than exceeded our expectations! It’s incredibly clean and cozy, smells wonderful and has all the amenities that we needed. They provide cookware, dishes, silverware, salt & pepper, a coffee station with various sweeteners and creamer, soap, shampoo, toothpaste, mouthwash, bottled water and more. We did a small Instacart order for groceries and we had everything we needed for our 6 day stay in NYC!
It’s about a 0.3 mile (8 minute) walk to the subway and very close to 2 bus stops. It does take about 30-45 min or so to get into Manhattan using public transportation, but it was worth it for us to have a home to go back to, rather than a hotel or one room apartment. We never felt unsafe walking to and from the subway, even though it was just my teenage daughter and myself. It’s a lovely neighborhood. We will absolutely be staying here on our next trip!
