My kids planned a weekend in Brooklyn in April 2013 to celebrate my 50th birthday My daughter and I stayed here, and loved it so much, we came back again on May 16/17/18, 2014, to visit my son, who lives near by. The apartment is lovely, comfortable, and well furnished. The garden is beautiful and we enjoyed coffee, cocktails, and long conversations there. This neighborhood has great coffee shops and restaurants, and is within walking distance of Fort Greene Park. We especially love the Brooklyn Flea, Cafe Paulette, and Bergen Bagels.

J. is a thoughtful and considerate host. We are already planning another visit for late October.
