Carly made us feel very welcome before, during, and after our stay. Her apartment is exactly as pictured; very clean, tasteful decor, and met my husband's and my needs perfectly. We especially appreciated that there was no TV - we were so busy visiting, exploring the wonderful and friendly neighborhood, and walking the local area that we didn't even notice except that we both commented on our nice it was just to enjoy the balcony and the quiet time together. Extremely convenient to a subway stop to go into Manhattan and I now know I prefer staying in Brooklyn to a hotel in the city. We had a wonderful trip and Carly's place definitely contributed to that!
