The apartment was very nice, clean, and had everything necessary to make for a comfortable time. Very spacious kitchen by Brooklyn standards! Giovanni responded to our questions and requests very quickly. The sitting area in the back yard is a nice plus.
There is not a lot of natural light in this ground-floor apartment, but the lighting provided was more than sufficient. The neighborhood had a nice community vibe to it, and folks generally returned our greetings when we passed by.
It's about a ten-minute walk to the C train, and several buses run nearby.
We recommend Giovanni's place and would certainly stay here again if future travels bring us back to this part of Brooklyn.
