This is a beautiful series of spaces with a lovely garden on a tree lined avenue close to Prospect Park, the wonderful Brooklyn Museum and Library, and the Botanic Gardens. Helen and Alfred are great hosts and anticipated our needs thoughtfully. We had a lovely welcome, and had a great time in this airy brownstone. Everything is elegantly curated, from great local guidebooks and recommendations for good places to eat (we adored Fonda’s) to just the right coffee in the fridge, cups on the shelf and an outstanding library. It was a perfect base for both Manhattan and the rest of Brooklyn - we only wish we’d been able to stay for longer!
