This loft is very cool. There's lots of interesting memorabilia and the large windows made for great views of the moon in the winter mornings. This place is very basic but has all your needs. No kitchen or TV, but we watched movies on our devices and just went to the local markets (one open 24 hours around the corner) for snacks and drinks which we kept in the mini fridge. It was cold in NYC when we got there, but the loft was very comfortable and toasty. We let our friends sleep on the main queen bed, but the futon wasn't too bad. If you're a light sleeper, take the partitioned room beds as the sunlight is nice and bright in the mornings with those large windows. We could get to the Brooklyn Bridge in about 15 minutes and walk to NYC (highly recommend walking the bridge). Otherwise we were only a few blocks from the train and you're only a couple of stops into Brooklyn from Manhattan. We loved being so close to the city but getting a break from all the noise. The waterfront and Brooklyn Heights were great places for breakfast to start the day. Mike communicated well prior to the trip and gave great recommendations. We would definitely stay here again for the location, comfort and value.
