We had a wonderful time in Carroll Garden. The appartement was great, very clean, comfortable and much bigger than you can see in the pictures. Huge bathroom with a wash-machine and dryer witch was very nice because we were traveling with our 3 year old son and need to wash his clothes a lot. Really nice bedrooms with comfy beds. The kitchen was great with everything you need. So we even cook dinner. Total bonus is the backyard were we enjoyed breakfast in the morning with beautiful singing birds. Our host. Melissa was great. She had a box full with toys for our son, he loved it! And a special chair upper, so he could sit at the table and I was afraid if my son would fell out sleeping in a big bed. So she also provides a camping toddler bed for him.
The neighborhood is the best. Beautiful brown houses, old trees and wide sidewalks. Shops and restaurants around the corner. The F-train just 2 minute walk. Train wil bring you in 15 minutes to Manhattan Union Square - Greenwich - H-line, very safe and fast. And if you want to stay with little kids. This is de best place, one block away is Carroll park with several playgrounds for all ages. Grap a coffee at Smith Canteen and sit down. Very relaxing with nice people.
So we loved it!! I We will come back.
