I heartily recommend Wendy's place for short or longer-term stays. It is located on a bright, south-facing block of Bergen Street, close to the heart of Boerum Hill. It is just a few blocks south of Atlantic Avenue, and its wealth of restaurants, shops and fun. Court Street, which is the spine of several Brooklyn neighborhoods, such as Cobble Hill and Carroll Gardens, is just a couple of blocks west of the building. In the unit, itself, you will find a ridiculously comfortable murphy bed, a fully appointed kitchen, a lovely back deck and more. I was there for a burst of close editing, and concentration away from family life for an important report. As such, I kept my head down and spent real quality time working in the apartment. The Wi-Fi, in particular, was a lively Fios connection that made work a breeze, with plenty of bandwidth left over for other devices. While the front steps are steep, they shouldn't pose too much of a challenge for any able-bodied person. (There is a different unit in her building at the garden-apartment level, should stairs pose a problem.) In all, I really recommend Wendy and her building very highly. You will get a real taste of South Brooklyn, and access to some of the marquee experiences that the Borough has to offer. And a genuinely welcoming feel that will have you feeling right at home in just a few short days.
