Noemie was always very responsive and she made me, my mother, wife and 5 year old son feel very welcomed. She sent us information ahead of time and ensured that we found the apartment safely. The apartment is lovely and while it is located about 25 minutes from Manhattan, it is close to the subway lines so that we could get anywhere we needed to. The street is extremely quiet at night time. Because I was traveling with my mother and young son, we did not stay out past 8 pm. We followed Noemie's suggestion and took cabs back to the apartment at night time. The neighbourhood is up and coming and still in the middle of its gentrification. While it is not unsafe, general awareness of your surroundings is a good thing as it is with any large city.

The apartment itself was nicely laid out and well stocked with pots, pans, utensils and dishes. The beds were extremely comfortable, including the sofabed which I slept on. The washer and dryer were a nice feature as it allowed us to do laundry half way through our trip.

Check out was a breeze and all I had to was message Noemie when we were leaving and leave the keys on the counter.

All in all a great stay and I would stay here again when I am back in NYC!
