I booked Helen's apartment for my sister-in-law and her two kids (8 and 2 years old) to stay for my wedding weekend. She was so welcoming when I arrived to pick up the key, even setting up the toddler bed for my nephew. Her place is so roomy for Brooklyn standards! (I live nearby and was jealous of all the space). It's also great for kids - so many toys and games...but if you don't have kids, she's tastefully tucked them away so you don't feel like you're in a kid's home. Anyway, if they come back and can't stay with us, we'll book again with Helen!
