We wanted our stay in NY to feel 'real', that's why we chose this really cool, 139 year old brownstone in Bed-Stuy. And we are happy we did that. It is an amazing historic building, at the same time nicely equipped. Definitely everything we hoped for, including toiletries, flat iron, blow dryer, fully equipped kitchen, air condition in every room to name just a few things we liked. Wi-Fi was fast, key for our kids.
The subway is just a 10 minute walk away and the line takes you directly into Manhattan and even up to Central Park and the AMNH.
Ken was a great host and we definitely recommend to stay there.
