My husband and I worked remotely from the beautiful retreat for a few days while also visiting some old friends in the city. It's a gorgeous, well cared for apartment with ample space for cooking, working, and hanging out. It's only a ten minute walk from the A train, which, if working properly, will get you to the west village in about 20 minutes. Bed Stuy itself is also incredibly diverse and interesting, filled with great places to eat and drink. The neighborhood is also changing by the minute, which is interesting to see. Mark was a gracious host who took the time to thoroughly orient us when we arrived. Can't recommend this place highly enough. Hopefully we'll be back!
