Guerline's apartment was the perfect landing place for our trip to Brooklyn. The four of us (two couples) felt that the space was comfortable and spacious; two large bedrooms, an updated kitchen, a nice living room and bathroom, and a bonus third room with a twin bed (would be perfect for a child). Guerline was very a welcoming and communicative host, and was able to quickly respond to an issue we had with the apartment lock. She left us coffee, snacks, and beverages, and allowed us to park one car in the driveway for the duration of our stay.
We picked the apartment for its proximity to Prospect Park and good value (for NYC). It ended up being a 1.5 mile walk to the park, and about a 10 minute walk to the nearest subway station to go into Manhattan. The neighborhood seems to be going through a bit of gentrification, and changes character if you walk just a few blocks towards the park. That said, we felt totally safe here.
