New York with benefits !!!
That was my 5th time in NY and my first at Brooklyn. Guess what? I’m in love !!! And Michael`s place is part of this feeling.
Michael and Angela were great hosts, making us feel at home. They welcomed us very early on a Tuesday morning with delicious muffins and orange juice . Think about a cozy, comfortable, spacious, quiet, beautiful, clear, charming, modern, fully equipped apartment. We had everything we needed and much more.
It’s a ground floor apartment with room enough to spread out. Even though my son was still sleeping, I used to have my breakfast at the back yard hearing birds and waiting for the squirrel to appear.
The location is outstanding, the street is beautiful, very quiet but dangerously close to many delicious restaurants, groceries stores, coffee places, mall, vintage shops.
I can`t say much about nightlife, since my son is 15, but for sure we could notice there’s a lot of options.
Various subway stops are within minutes of walking distance, and the ride to Manhattan -many number of lines- is only 30 minutes. If you take the Q or R subway don’t forget to stop by at Starbucks, the best and large one I`ve seen in years.
Once you plan your trip, save some time to visit Brooklyn neighborhood. There’s so much around, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed. Prospect Park - AMAZING, Brooklyn Museum, Prospect Park Zoo, Brooklyn Botanical Garden, Barclays Center. Don’t waste your time going to NJ or Woodbury outlets. Find great deals at Target, Marshalls, Old Navy, Victoria`s Secret, Mac and at Fulton Av `- Macy’s, Aldo, Aeropostale, GAP, Modell’s and more.
Yes, I do recommend Michael’s place and if I have a chance to visit NY again I will stay there!!
