Julie's place is absolutely beautiful. I've stayed in a number of apartments in this area and hers is my favorite.
It's bright and cheerful, with south-facing windows letting light into the living room all day and west-facing windows with views of the sunset and downtown Brooklyn in the bathroom and bedroom. It's a perfect place for plants (big plus for me) and Julie's collection made the space really lovely. Because it's on the top floor (and the surrounding buildings are shorter) it feels very private despite being in an active area.
I stayed here for a month and found it to be a great spot. Lots of Bed Stuy restaurants and shops on tree-lined streets within walking distance and a convenient laundromat nearby. The J train to Manhattan is two blocks away (this line goes over a bridge with skyline views in case you're visiting). The building is on the same corner as a bus stop to Bushwick and Ridgewood if that's where you're headed, and I've also walked into Bushwick. The nightclub Paragon and restaurant/bar Mao Mao are an 8-minute walk away.
Julie is a very responsive and accommodating host and any issues that came up were quickly resolved. I'd love to stay in her home again.
