Well, I don’t think I am particularly “hip,” but I do like to live in a neighborhood rather than a hotel, sometimes. If you do, too, you will love this place! Stayed here for four nights in October 2016. My daughter attends school nearby, and this was perfectly located within a few minutes walk in a lovely, residential neighborhood. The pictures do not do this sweet apartment justice. It is cozy, spotless and made very welcoming by our gracious host, Sarah. I did not meet Eddie. Please read the glowing reviews from others. It is all true. Clean, quality, comfortable, more spacious than you may imagine for NY, many extra amenities and thoughtful touches make this a wonderful place to call home while here in Brooklyn. The neighborhood is quiet here, yet very close to shopping, dining and transportation options. Sarah could not be any nicer! She even came to check on us to see if we were warm enough, as it was that transitional fall weather time of year. If we had asked, they would have turned the heat on upstairs (one system for both spaces) for our comfort. It was cool, but there were blankets and throws to use while we hung out here, and we were fine. The bed was comfortable, with high quality bedding and a cozy comforter on top. Plenty of pillows! Thank you! I sleep so much better with a second pillow for my knees. One could choose from several types of pillow. Extra blankets in closet.
Water gets hot quickly (be careful!). Good water pressure.
They ended up turning the heat on after all, as the temperatures dipped down. The apartment was toasty warm.

We really appreciated the breakfast items she had here for us and used them throughout the stay. Eggs, oj, milk, English muffins, muffins, fruit and many other small items made being here easy and comfortable without having to invest in, say, a whole dozen eggs, etc. Sarah is an artist, and her vibrant art adorns the walls. You can also see it in the small details around the place, like the decor in bedroom and bath. Kitchen has toaster, microwave, full gas range/oven, cookware, etc. (Close the bedroom door when cooking to prevent sensitive alarm from going off.)

The only thing I thought could make it even better was more lighting in the living room.

Upon check-out, Sarah let me stay an extra half hour, and even called a car service for me, making sure to ask the price in advance so the driver couldn’t try to charge me more. (Evelyn car service came a few minutes early. Easy way to get to the airport.) You will be very happy here. I can’t wait to return.
