I had a wonderful time at Valery's apartment. Its beautifully decorated and has lots of amenities - even better than being at an expensive hotel! We enjoyed sitting in the back garden, browsing the record collection, looking at the art, and enjoying all the space. It was perfectly clean when we arrived. Prospect Heights is a great neighborhood. There are lots of restaurants, bars and shops in the area and it's right by Prospect Park. It's close to many of the other fun neighborhoods in Brooklyn, and a quick subway ride to Manhattan. I hope to stay st Valery's apartment next time I'm in New York!
