Thank you Renee for your kind comments! I am so happy to have hosted you and that our Carriage House made your two weeks in Manhattan easy! Please come back anytime!
We stayed in the carriage house as part of a larger group staying in the main house too. Both spaces are very well stocked, clean and comfortable. We walked to campus and Aggieville easily and the kids enjoyed playing in the park right across the street. Highly recommend the home and we're all looking forward to our next opportunity to stay here! Communication with Anne was pleasant and timely.
