Great view of Wellington. This cottage is in a residential area. There is a fair amount of climbing, so if that is an issue for you, be aware. We used the lower level bed and were very comfortable. Great city views and the lights at night were great. We stayed over Christmas and the host was very good about asking us if we wanted a tree (we did) and a few other things to make our holiday run smoothly. About a 15 minute walk into the center of Brooklyn where there are a couple of restaurants and a movie theater.
