Julian is a phenomenal host. We got some great recommendations for a market and breakfast, both of which we took and thoroughly enjoyed. The place is even better than the pictures, and the pictures were fantastic so that is saying a lot. The place has clearly been updated with all of the subtle touches accounted for. From the record player with some great jazz and other choices as options, to the beautifully appointed kitchen, to the bathrooms which are spectacularly done and then topped off with the great bonus room downstairs...it made our trip absolutely perfect. I'd stay here every time I come to Brooklyn.
