Jonathan and Sophia's place is comfortable and in a fantastic location - close to C line subway into Manhattan, walking distance to some great restaurants with good food, prices, and ambiance. They have included the amenities needed for basic cooking and keeping clothes put away so that you do not have to live out of a suitcase. The flat is plenty large for 2-3 people. Having never been to Brooklyn before, and having heard caution from old time New Yorkers about the Bed-Stuy neighborhood, we were a bit unsure what we were getting ourselves into. However, our daughter recently moved about a mile away from Jonathan's and Sophia's place so the location fit our needs well. We learned from locals that the neighborhood is much better than 10-20 years ago. The neighborhood felt safe day and night, was quiet, and the brownstones are beautiful and interesting, with a combination of remodeled and those still in need of some loving fixing. Jonathan responds to any questions quickly and has great suggestions to offer. We would definitely stay here again when we go to visit our daughter!
