Our stay at Douglas’s place was great—we spent the entire days we were there in Manhattan, but the one day we went to a Yankees game it was so convenient to the stadium. We (husband, kids aged 7, 5, and 2, and I) had been on the road traveling for 3 weeks by the time we made it to NYC, and we slept better here than we did anywhere else—the AC was clutch in the midst of a heat wave! Although all the beds were technically in the same open-plan room, it still felt like we each had our own space and did not feel too cramped at all. The walk to the subway is quick and easy, even in a downpour :). Doug’s father was such a great host, even spending time in the evenings playing with our kids! Thank you for making our first family trip to NYC a success!
