happy new yorkers

Right at the outset, let me say that we would highly recommend this place. My wife and I stayed for three nights with our two young adult children. The owner met us right on time and was very gracious in getting us settled in, This included a good orientation on location, metro, as well as local restaurants and services. The place is immediately likable: it is fronted with several windows and is very open, cheerful, and light. The common areas are very user friendly and open, so it is pleasant to have a meal, or sit and talk/watch the news, whether with just a couple or a larger group. The kitchen, bathrooms, all the bedrooms are perfectly nice and cheerful. The partially exposed brick is a nice touch. It is very quiet for sleeping. In addition, the location is really fantastic. You are within walking distance of everything, or a couple of metro stops away. In short, you are close but away from the fray. It is in a real neighborhood (sort of like a quiet part of the upper east or upper west sides of NYC), with good markets, bakeries, etc. The place was lovely; the owners very nice and helpful; and we would love to go back. If it existed in nyc (and was affordable), we would move back to manhattan!
