Christine was a very thoughtful hostess, and our accommodations were clean, comfortable, and exceptionally spacious. A subway stop is about two blocks away and the trains run frequently, so getting to/from Manhattan is not a problem. Brooklyn itself has many places to see as well. Located in an authentic NYC brownstone, rather than in an ordinary (and expensive) Manhattan hotel, this proved an ideal place to stay at a very reasonable cost, with a cute dog to boot. Thanks, Christine!
