The apartment is large and in a great neighborhood.
The LR sofa was huge and comfy. The bathroom was updated and had a shelving for me to put toiletries and my hair dryer. I was comfortable in the master BR.
I wish the closest subway wasn’t the G since it requires transferring or an Uber home from the station a little further not on the G, but I’m adaptable. This is NYC so that’s life. (I used to live in Manhattan 20 years ago). It barely took any time for the Uber from DeKalb metro station and much cheaper than an Uber from Manhattan. (These comments are just if in a perfect world…)
My kids fought over the front BR with the twin and damaged the door. Of course I expected to reimburse and did. But if you have difficult children, be forewarned the doors are hollow and not like that of a hotel. They were pushing on either side of the door and my son’s knee made the damage. It’s not like it would happen if people are acting like civil human beings. It took force. The kicker is neither one slept in the room for a full night. My son didn’t like the mattress and my daughter was fine with the mattress but felt scared in the room. There’s nothing scary it’s just her being age 10.
If Emma would have me, I’d definitely stay again but hopefully without my kids — who I love dearly — so that I could really enjoy my “vacation.”
Make sure you take a 20-30 min walk or Uber to Water st and Washington St to DUMBO for one of the best views of Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge.
