Comfortable space with a quiet, dark, cool back bedroom making sleeping easy despite being in NYC! Wonderful neighborhood, with great food, great diversity, friendly people, and lots of interesting things to see. My husband said the neighborhood reminds him of his travels in Panama. Also there are plenty of fruit stands and grocery stores for fresh produce. We are traveling with three kids and we felt very safe on the streets and in the apartment building. There are fun playgrounds and parks just a few blocks away for the kids, and while we were at the playground the NYC police showed up with a big bag of balls, hoola hoops, and jump ropes and proceeded to play with the children for the next hour! I’ve never seen anything like it-an armed police officer jumping rope with little girls. Just amazing! Apparently it’s a community outreach program that happens every Wednesday afternoon in good weather. Rebekah and Esdras are responsible, friendly, honest, and quick to respond to questions. I highly recommend!
