We spent five nights in Tim and Ellen's stylish apartment and it worked really well for us as a base to explore New York City.
The apartment occupies the lower two floors of the building and is located in a quiet part of Brooklyn but is close enough to be able to walk across Brooklyn Bridge to Manhattan.
The kitchen is equipped well enough to prepare any kind of meal that you are likely to want to when visiting the city. Ample space was made available for us in the refrigerator.
The two double bedrooms are downstairs and connected by double glass doors (with blinds).
Upstairs the open kitchen / dining room connects to the spacious living room, well equipped with hi-fi, projector and Apple TV; both have wonderful high ceilings.
There are a handful of good dining options within 10 minutes or so walking distance, but if you are staying for a few days or more (and want variety) you may wish to venture further.
Tim and Ellen were at our disposal throughout the stay and were extremely responsive to any queries that we had, responding within a couple of minutes.
The apartment was cool and clean and was a great place for our NYC adventure. Thank you Tim and Ellen!
