We had a great time at Gabriela's apartment. It was a spacious, clean, very nice and cozy place, everything was exactly as in the description. Her husband, Nikko, was a huge help, he welcomed us and showed us everything, also gave us few tips on nice things in the area.
The apartment is in a good, safe location and it is very easy to get everywhere (there are 2 or 3 subway stations located about 10 minutes away).
There's also a garden outside, but we didn't really have a chance to enjoy it because our stay in NY was rather short, but I imagine it can be a great place for a longer stay, definitely recommended.
PS: there's an absolutely amazing donut place nearby called Dough (5 minutes from the Bedford-Nostrand station), which is just another reason to stay at their place.
