Comfortable studio in Brooklyn in souterrain of 'brownstone' house. Neighbourhood on some places a bit scruffy, although you sense that local community is trying hard to make this a better place. Still feels authentic. Owners advise you that after 10pm you better to take a taxi (which is probably right) but the few times we were out late we never felt threatened or so. Public transport (subway) within 10minutes walk. Supermarket, great Chinese take away, and several deli's nearby.
Good and very efficient communication with helpfull Monica - though we've not met here. As a Xmas surprise she left us delicious oldfashioned sweets. Would definitely stay here again. Especially in summer, to get to know Brooklyn better, with rentable Citybikes that are found all around.
