Staying in Windsor Terrace near Jeruschka and John was lovely! I had my own little oasis and came and went as I pleased. The subway was mere blocks away and the walk was nice. I found a favorite coffee shop in Steeplechase two blocks away for "snobby coffee" and had breakfast at Brooklyn Commune and thoroughly walked the whole neighborhood, it was very safe and welcoming. Their place was nice and perfect for one person needing a place to crash for a week while apartment hunting. It was easy to get into Manhattan and peaceful out in Brooklyn; my hosts could not have been nicer, I would definitely stay there again.
