The Container House is a terrific place to stay, not just for its uniqueness. The house is a few-minute walk to the subway and a single stop into Manhattan. As per tips provided by the hosts, the neighborhood also has great restaurants within easy walks, and Lyft was available within minutes. The house is also walking distance from several highly developed "hot" areas in Brooklyn (if your trip calls for waiting in lines at brewpubs and beer gardens). The accommodations are comfortable and clean, and Janet & David have provided many thoughtful touches, from coffee, cold water and shampoo to notes about the a/c, extra towels and blankets, and of course, a tour of the deck & garden led by Mormon. I would stay again in a New York minute.
