I cannot say enough good--no, GREAT--things about this listing. First of all, it was spotless. It was the cleanest AirBnB I ever stayed at. Secondly, the location is terrific! There are tons of wonderful shops and cafes and restaurants and grocery stores all nearby, plus gorgeous Prospect Park and the stunning Brooklyn Central Library and the amazing Brooklyn Botanic Garden and the impressive Brooklyn Museum are all short walks away, as are multiple subway lines. From the apartment, it's a quick and easy jaunt into Manhattan (though why go to Manhattan at all?-- Brooklyn is a foodie haven and a walker's paradise!). The apartment itself is extremely comfortable with everything one needs, plus many things hard to come by in most AirBnBs (a colander! plastic containers! a potato peeler!). Last, but certainly not least, all our contacts with Catherine (and her "team") were so positive. Everyone went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and welcome and pride in the apartment's comfort and cleanliness and utility is clearly taken. For instance, I mentioned that the can opener wasn't functioning optimally but that we don't use a lot of canned goods, so no big hurry to replace it. However, a new can opener was brought to us at the apartment pronto! In short, my husband and I stayed at Catherine's place for seven weeks and truly came to love it as our temporary home away from home. We recommend this comfortable, clean, centrally-located, well-hosted listing without hesitation.
