This is a very cute hip apartment, near buses and trains making it super easy for access. We were provided with a list of local spots for food and groceries and none of them dissapointed. There’s a bunch of dollar stores near by where one can get cheap souvenirs vs Manhattan prices. Hosts allowed us to check in a couple hours early and when I reached out for help with a train they responded quickly.
Their backyard space is very lovely perfect for an outdoor meal or just to yang out after a long day of exploring the island. Keep in mind that to get anywhere in Manhattan no mayter what transportation it will take at least 30 to 40 via public transportation but the subway and buses are part of the adventure.
Brooklyn was a great place to stay for our first visit. Staying in their place made me feel like a local and I love local experiences.
