We had a great stay here. It’s a beautiful apartment, compact but bigger than I expected from the photos, and with more than enough room for the couple of us. The bathroom is great, kitchen while small is very well equipped, the bed was extremely comfortable and there was loads of storage space. Joseph had laid on plenty of towels and linen, and thoughtfully provided many useful items (the umbrellas came in very handy on one of the days!) As has been mentioned, the stairs up to the apartment are very narrow and steep, which was never a problem for us, but I would take Joseph up on his offer of help with heavy luggage if anyone has any kind of mobility issues.
The location was perfect for us - a quiet street seconds away from the busy but also neighbourhood-y vibe of Manhattan Ave (cannot recommend the blueberry buttermilk donut at Peter Pan bakery enough, and Calexico was delicious too), and easy walking distance from the full-on new Brooklyn experience of Williamsburg and Bedford Ave. We used the subway to get around all over Brooklyn and Manhattan, and the two stations for two different trains being about two and ten minutes away was really handy.
Communication with Joseph was very efficient and I’d definitely stay again. Thanks!
