Our daughter lives in Cobble Hill, only 4 blocks away from this apartment. We came to visit her and our son from Phoenix also joined us. We hadn't been all together in years. This apartment was stylish, roomy, well-stocked, and in a hip area of Brooklyn. We felt so welcomed there. You could tell that it was set up and maintained by people who care. We cooked Italian in the kitchen and had everything we needed as far as utensils, pots, pans, dinnerware, etc. There were plenty of towels in the bathroom and a wonderful washer and dryer that we put to good use. The guidebook was so informative, we didn't have to ask for any further information or suggestions for restaurants, grocery stores and other kinds of shops. The day before we left we received a message from Judy that the cleaning person would get there later and we could checkout later,too, if we'd like. We really hated to leave, but hopefully will get to use it again.
