Bettina's house is a wonderful gem and example of the beautiful architecture and design of Bed-Stuy. The detailing from the wooden shutters to the hinges on the double doors in the living space is breathtaking. The area is a real neighbourhood not a tourist leaflet and you will see real people with real lives as you travel through. The neighbourhood of Bed-Stuy has blocks of brownstone houses, families who have lived there for generations and has a lot of heart and honesty. We are so glad we gave it a chance and fell in love with the diversity and variety of Brooklyn. Bettina has created a beautiful home and we felt relaxed and happy straight away. The neighbours downstairs were lovely and we felt completely at home. The subway was a 10 minute walk away with cafes and food shops along the way, meaning we could get around the City easily. Brooklyn is a wonderful borough with each neighbourhood having its own style to discover. We had a fantastic two weeks at Bettina's and would recommend her house to anyone visiting Brooklyn or New York.
