Lovely, clean apartment that has all you need and Frances is a very nice, helpful host who will look after you. Checking in and out was really easy and Frances has a lot of recommendations of where to go/what to do in Brooklyn and you'll have NYC travel guides in different languages in the apartment. Since the apartment is in the basement, there is only one window and no view, but we didn't really mind that since we were out all day anyway. Very close to a subway station, so we got everywhere quickly. There's even a few bars and cafes nearby. And we got a parking spot for our rental car, but wouldn't recommend giving it up as long as you're allowed to leave the car there ;-).
