With so much to see and do in NYC we didn't spend an enormous amount of time in the apartment. However, it was a wonderfully calm, quiet place to come back to each evening. Marc has obviously put a lot of care and thought into furnishing and decorating his home, which is full of interesting artefacts from around the world. Although we didn't get to meet Marc in person, he kept in constant touch and was always ready with helpful advice and information. One of the apartment's biggest advantages is its location - just across the road from the lovely Prospect Park and only a few minutes' walk away from the subway, making it easy to get to and from Manhattan. There is also a well-stocked supermarket very close to Park Side Avenue station. One discovery we made and would heartily recommend is the delightful Caribbean restaurant, Mangoseed at 757 Flatbush Avenue, just a few minutes' walk away. We went there twice and were very happy with both food and price on each occasion.
Overall, it was a happy experience. We would recommend Marc's apartment to everyone, especially those with a taste for the unconventional.
