The room itself has a lovely feel to it, the balcony with the plants is especially nice on sunny days. I think the surrounding area is a huge part of the appeal - the road itself has a bunch of lovely independent cafes, shops and restaurants. I particularly recommend browsing the bookshop opposite, and getting your morning coffee from the cafe/shop "the narativ house" just down the road. Easy access to Manhattan via the A or C train as well. Many thanks to Jessie for being very helpful and accommodating with my questions both before and during the stay. :)
