Eric&Justin, thank you so much for your hospitality!
We had amazing time in this beautiful apartment! It is very cosy and roomy with lovely vintage wooden furniture and lot of lamps and live plants! And I loved the paintings very much! I would say that this apartment has a very stylish designer interior and historical background.
We had everything we needed and a lot more - Eric has prepared nice food supply in the fridge for us (and it saved me from starving after long journey ;)) and helped with garbage.
The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet (and for Christmas each porch was decorated) - and I do recommend to walk around - I enjoyed a lot those brownstones. First they all seem same but at second glance each one is unique and amazing! Apartment is close to the subway station yet far enough from noisy streets - we heard no car sirens or trains at night. Subway works 24/7 and several times we were returning very very late - it's safe.
Also it is very convenient to get here from JFK.
On my next trip to NY I would definitely like to stay here again :)
