Really great location to subway right into Manhattan. Takes about 15-30 depending on where you’re going. The best bagel shop nearby as well as coffee with the nicest owner (yard sale coffee) on 5th ave. We loved exploring Prospect Park with our kiddos. We stayed as a family of 5 (3 kids, ages 9, 11, and 13). It felt very safe and anything you need is walkable and super convenient.
The apartment is a great size with laundry in the unit. It is super clean, well stocked, and the owners are so nice and easy to get ahold of. The traffic sounds can be a bit loud because of its proximity to the main road, but we take a sound machine with us everywhere and it didn’t bother us at all! The beds could use a mattress topper to make a little more comfortable. Otherwise, it was a great stay. This is a perfect location if you want to feel like a local out of the hustle and bustle of being in Manhattan. Would definitely stay again in the future!
