It already started with a more than friendly reply to my request - Jeruschka and John are really nice and sweet and hit me up daily to see if I needed anything or if they can help me out finding a sight or a restaurant etc. The apartment was nice, clean and comfy - I never slept so good while being in NYC - I already miss that bed :) everything I needed I could find in there from a huge fridge, over towels and a hairdryer to maps and summer schedules of the area. The area in Brookyln is quiet and beautiful, I felt more than safe walking around even late at night. Everything is close by: laundrymat, restaurants, delis, the park and of course the subway are reached easily and fast by foot. I more than enjoyed my stay there and I sure would book the apartment again - I felt more than welcome.
