We stayed with our two daughters for a week visiting NYC for the first time. Kristian is a great host who welcomed us with a box of locally produced ice cream. Delicious. The apartment is nicely located in a quite neighborhood of Brooklyn close (5min walk) to a subway station which made traveling downtown Manhattan easy (30-40min). Juno taxi can also be recommended. We used them to go to JFK in approx. 30 min for 35$. We enjoyed staying away from the bustling city, getting a flavor how life in Brooklyn is. The apartment was big enough for the four of us, clean and quite. Highly recommended.
