My daughter and I found the House on Henry to be the perfect place to stay for our trip to New York. Annette was a gracious hostess and very accommodating of our flight schedule. The apartment is roomy for NY, with separate bedrooms. It is very charmingly decorated and has all the amenities, including a fully equipped kitchen. It is a short walk to the subway and a brief subway ride into Manhattan. Carroll Gardens is a very safe and lively area, with lots of flowers, as the name implies. There are many restaurants and grocers just minutes from the apartment. We loved it there and will definitely plan our next trip to NYC so that we can stay with Annette as hostess again.
