On our arrival we were welcomed by Finola and a wonderful assortment of crackers, hummus, cherries and other snacks thoughtfully tailored to my food sensitivities. The apartment was immaculate and beautifully decorated. There is a wealth of wonderful reading material, including a great collection of fiction and nonfiction about Brooklyn. The bed was very comfortable and there is a good shower. Street noises, which can be a problem in NYC, somehow do not penetrate this apartment! Park Slope is a vibrant family neighborhood convenient to many restaurants, shops, the subway, and Prospect Park. We'd love to stay at Finola's again the next time we visit our son in Brooklyn.
