We enjoyed the location and closeness to the subway especially after getting off the subway at Prospect Park exit (that our App suggested) . We found a closer exit, Hamilton that we used and became pretty good at navigating around the Brooklyn area from your starting point. It was our intention to explore Brooklyn this trip to NY and we did just that. We loved the setting of the old building, the size of the space and amenities were just what we needed. We did find the airport and many areas on our list to explore easily with the help of the friendly New Yorkers! (Seattle area visitors)
