Our stay at Paulines was very comfortable. The area is really nice with a great vibe, cool street art and nice restaurants nearby. Paulines apartment was very modern and clean when we arrived. She was on a holiday and both her roommates were home. We met one of them and she was a comfortable person to be around with. The metro is close by and there is a ferry as well not far away. On a Saturday we went to Smorgasburg, which is a food market in Williamsburg and that was as well a waking distance to Paulines apartment. I highly recommend staying at Paulines place when you want to experience NY and especially Brooklyn.
