Eric's place was great, just what we wanted. Staying in that location was ideal, an easy subway trip in to Manhatten if we wanted to go but staying in a much more laid back neighbourhood which had everything you could possibly need. There are so many great little delis, bars and restaurants you really are spoilt for choice. The apartment itself was lovely, just right for us two to spend the second week of our honeymoon. The kitchen was amazingly well equipped, we didn't end up cooking as much as we thought (due to all the amazing food options within walking distance!) but you could of cooked a banquet in there if you'd wanted to! Plenty of pots and pans, utensils and counter space. The bathroom was good too, a hairdryer and fresh towels were provided along with other toiletry basics incase we ran out and the shower had good temperature adjustment which is really important to me as I can't stand hot showers! The raised bed was very cute, almost like a grown ups bunk bed which was a bit of a novelty. Eric was a brilliant host, his instructions for getting into the apartment were very clear and he came to welcome us on our first evening. Although we didn't need much help from him during our stay all communications were answered really quickly and he was very helpful on our last day especially. Even though he had to clean the apartment ready for guests the following day we were able to leave our suitcases there until 6pm as our flight wasn't until 10 that night and he happily arranged a good quality taxi company to take us to the airport as we were not able to book one ourselves with only having British phones.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this apartment to anyone who wants a cool, laid back place to stay in Brooklyn-you wont regret it!
