I had a great time in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn. Judy and her husband were great hosts, they were caring and helpful.
The apt looked exactly as the pictures and the neighborhood felt friendly. It was great to have the metro station, were the A train were passing by, som close.
I can certainly recommend the apartment for anyone looking to stay in Brooklyn, but at the same time be close to Manhattan, which you are because of the A train.
We had our two year old son with us and there is two playgrounds not so far from the apt.
