Perfect location, brilliant flat and wonderful flat-mates. If we return to Brooklyn we'll be staying here again!
The flat: Super clean, they make a huge effort here and it really shows. No noise problems and whilst the bedroom is small you've got loads of storage space. Whether you're staying for a weekend or a month you'll be fine. Bathroom is v.clean and the kitchen has just about everything you need. They also make fridge space / cupboard available so you can easily go shopping and cook yourself.
Location: The metro is on your doorstep and its about 20mins to downtown Manhatten. If you're a craft beer fan, like me, you've got a vast array of bars and breweries on your doorstep. The Owl barn and The Other Half Brewing are both in walking distance and must be visited. You're also in the heart of Brooklyn and it definitely feels like you're mixing with the locals, who are very friendly. Finally, there's a Wholefoods supermarket about 10min walk away, which sells decent quality food.
Flatmates: Andrew was a perfect host, incredibly friendly, and always answered any questions we had although he works a lot so you'll only catch him in the evenings. Be sure to quiz him on his upcoming projects, if you play your cards right he might cast you!
