This apartment is a wonderful base to explore Brooklyn and Manhattan from - cosy and stylish, it's in a funky area full of cafes, Polish restaurants and cool shops. The ferry across to Manhattan is quick and easy (cab fares back surprisingly cheap) and Maya's map full of suggestions was absolutely invaluable - our stay wouldn't have been the same without it. As all the other wonderful reviews attest, this really is a great choice when headed to New York.
