We stayed at Allon's place for about two weeks and it was really nice – like a little private hideout from the busy citylife behind Allon and Sarah's house in their garden. They have a cafe and provided us with a freshly roasted beans that we enjoyed every morning. There are all the necessary groceries close-by, many cafes and easy access to Williamsburg with a bus or Manhattan with a metro (this was a 15-minute walk to the metrostation though). My wife didn't feel too safe commuting during the nighttime around the area so we usually took a Lyft when we arrived home late. There is a nice park Fort Greene closeby – perfect for morning jog or Prospect Park which is large and much more quiet compared to Central Park. Allon and Sarah also had a little helpful guidebook prepared with all the recommendations around their area for dining out, activities, sightseeing etc. We really enjoyed our stay and recommend staying at their little cottage if you have chance.
