The apartment is very nice, super-hip area of Brooklyn (to be honest, didn't expect so many cool and trendy Hipster cafes and restaurants in NYC) but maybe a bit too trendy for families, if you know what I mean (it's not super-modern Manhatten) :)
Beth was a great host, even gave us the possibility to stay a bit longer on the date of departure as there where no immediately following guests. Communication and check-in was quick and easy.
Metro is nearby, Manhatten only 15min away by train.
The Apartment is fully equipped and the shower is a dream :)
