Silvia's place was exactly as she stated! Super artistic and stylish. Loved the built-in dish drainer in the kitchen--so so clever!! The neighborhood was mostly families, and had our favorite Brooklyn bar across the street. Access to a health-food store on Flushing was perfect for us--was able to buy free-range eggs, recycled tp, and organic milk!

Silvia's friend met us at check-in and showed us everything. She also went the extra mile and looked up an address for us of a super hip spot we wanted to shop. Good people!

If you're going to Manhattan on weekends, make note of the train schedule--I was busy doing my thing and got caught off guard when the train wasn't running as expected. Whoops!
