Arlene's place was great. We had six adults in the house and never felt crowded. Arlene has gone out of her way to make you feel at home and has added help full notes to get you functional. The location is easy to get to and there are plenty of shops and restaurants with in walking distance. You can walk to a coffee shop much faster than you can make it yourself. While there get a croissant, they're delicious.
Entrances to the L and G trains are a 10 to 15 minute walk giving you subway access to anywhere in Brooklyn and or Manhattan. If subways are not your thing we never had to wait more than 5 minutes for an Uber or Lyft.
