This is a true Brooklyn listing. Amazing location. Able to explore all corners of NY.
If you are keen walkers, as we are. The lower East side is a 2 hr walk away which allows you to see many corners of Brooklyn also, in including Prospect Park, DUMBO and the Brooklyn Bridge.
Williamsburg and Greenpoint are 45mins walk to the north.
Local amenities include grocery stores and laundromat just 5mins away.
If you aren’t wanting to walk so much the J train is within easy access. We just invested in a metro card and used this most days. You can sort that at the Kosciuszko street station just down the road.
If wanting Williamsburg get off at Marcy. If wanting Manhattan we found that staying on until Canal street/Bowery was ideal. You can always then change trains if needed.
In terms of safety. We had no issues. Embrace the culture and you’ll feel fine. Keep your eye out for the local street art. It’s fantastic.
Amenities good. Towels, linen etc provided. Beds v comfortable. We stayed over a week and admittedly only cooked once. This is NY after all! We ordered in a couple of times and local takeouts are good.
Hosts were available to answer any queries as needed. Great stay, thank you Vika and Josh :)
