We had a fabulous time in this wonderful apartment. Firstly, Poppy went out of her way to make arrangements that suited us and our travel requirements... but it didn't stop there
The apartment was perfect (and just as advertised, if not better) - we felt immediately at home and very comfortable. It was spotlessly clean with all the facilities we needed. Poppy kindly left recommendations for shopping and eating - which we used and were not disappointed.
The transfer from JFK was easy, about 25 mins with rush hour traffic and the journey back (via Uber - also recommended) was instant and easy too.
The transport links are also excellent - the Blue C subway became our 'best friend', being only just over 5 minutes walk away and it ferried us into and all over Manhattan (direct train takes about 20-40 mins depending on where you're going). It also linked us up with easy subways into other boroughs of Brooklyn. ($32 for an unlimited 7 day Metro ticket - possibly our best buy!)
In short - I can't recommend Poppy's beautiful home enough - and making Brooklyn your base. Just fabulous :)
