truly a one of a kind vacation home
had a great time on this lovely boat, it was equipped with everything needed and provided a stunning 'water view' from the bedroom and terrace on top of the boat :-) owner was easy to communicate with and very helpful right from the start; answered all my questions concerning motion sickness (which wasn't a problem at all), gave directions and was very friendly. so were the neighbors who treated me very nice and offered a warm welcome.
small shops and restaurants are within walking distance and an express bus stop is 2 minutes away. travel time to manhattan is about 30 minutes.
if you're tired of boring hotel rooms, this cozy boat is perfect to spend some happy days on while visiting ny :-)
