The treasure of NY
We lived in this magnific apartment at Turtle Bay for more than 2 months. My family and me (two adults and two children) were welcomed even before the begin of our stay, with prompt, accurate and helpful replies to any of our questions and worries about running a daily life, that is, taking kids to school, grocery shopping, cooking, laundering etc.
The arrival itself was lovely: Sophie and Eiilin left the apartment shining and tidy for us. They were so kind to fix a pizza waiting for us. Sophie explained everything about the apartment (appliances, lights etc.) and the building (trash disposal etc).
The apartment’s location is amazing, with a 24/7 supermarket around the corner, great restaurants, lots of NYC’s landmarks at walking distance (the UN, Roosevelt Island, Grand Central Station, New York Public Library and Bryant Park, Rockefeller Center, Times Square, Central Park). And it is just a few blocks from trains 6 (51st St. with Lexington Ave), E and M (53rd St. with 3rd Ave). There is also a Trader Joe’s and a TJ Max nearby (both at 59th St. with 1st Ave) for budget groceries and everyday shopping needs. The 6 train service is a fast link to the Mont Sinai Hospital at Madison Ave with 98th St., which helped us deal with my 6 year old son arm fracture.
The apartment itself has a wonderful energy, it is beautiful and well equipped with everything that you need for a comfort life, including a washing machine and dryer inside, which is particularly handy. In the morning you have a beautiful sunshine going through the window and at night we have a moonlight in the apartment. The felling is just amazing. The building has a full-time concierge and doorman that are very polite and helpful.
I can say that me and my family had the most wonderful time of our lives in this place. The welcoming and caring of Eiilin and Sophie made us want to live here for the rest of our lives.
