This is such a wonderful apartment. Located in a quiet street, but so close to everything - great location. It is bright, clean and very Williamburgish; old wooden floors, white walls, high ceiling and a lot of charm.
Wifi is great - if you have to work, no problem. Bathroom has a lovely big shower. Big soft towels are provided as well as a hairdryer, and there are several shelves for all your creams and other remedies.
In the morning, the sun brightens up the bedroom, but no worries if you don´t like early morning wake up, there are blinds and curtains.
Meyers Bageri is right around the corner - tasty fresh sourdough bread in the morning, and a cup of coffee. Wholefood is just 3min away, and the store is a haven for foodists - they have everything you need, and then some. The subway is 5min by foot, and it is easy to travel to Manhattan with the L line. Change train on 14th UnionSquare (only 3 stops) if you want to go Uptown or Downtown - or you can walk the other way, passing under Williamsburg bridge, and take the J or Z line from Myrtle Avenue. Why not walk over Williamsburg bridge. Keep on the left side, right side is for bikers.
If you walk down Driggs avenue, and take a left on 6th street all the way down, you will find the NY Waterway ferry that will take you down to Wall Street on East River, passing under Brooklyn Bridge (stopping at South Williamsburg and Dumbo). Perfect way of transportation, $4 one way. You need to buy a ticket before you go onbard - the have an App, easy to use.
Try Maison Premiere for their Oyster Happy Hour - 4-7pm. Sit in the bar, and enjoy watching the bartenders while working - it's like watching a well choreographed dance in bar mixing. Do try the Absinth drip, lovely and fresh.
If you like meat, then El Almacen is a great choice. Remember to book a table. SweetGreen and their warm Harvest Bowl is supertasty, and their other salads are also delicious - only 20m from Wholefood.
There is a long list of good restaurant, cafe´s and bakeries on the fridge. .
Would definitely recommend Ming and Matthews apartment - ideal for everyone who likes to explore and enjoy life. We truly enjoyed our stay.
