An absolute gem within Brooklyn! This is a beautifully spacious two story place, with air con in every room and every modern facility you'll need including a blender, washer and dryer. The location is great, and unbelievable safe - it is about three blocks from Prospect Park which is amazing, and the two parallel avenues are stacked with bars, restaurants and grocery stores. We were working in Manhattan, and commuted to the Upper East Side using the Q train, but there is also easy access to loads of major subway lines within walking distance; we'd preferentially stay here over Manhattan next time.
The host, Dave and his family, are so accommodating. They ensure you have everything you need, and are contactable if you need them. I couldn't recommend them enough, both as people and hosts.
For a reasonable and homely stay in NYC, look no further.
