Very nice apartment, in a nice area! The only downfalls was the noise from the upper levels.. like people talking and moving around. And the commute to manhattan being pretty long about 1 hr 1/2 each way. There are a lot of food options nearby, nail salons, and laundromats. The bus line is in walking distance as well. This was our first time staying in Brooklyn and overall it was a nice, friendly experience.. we enjoyed our stay!
