I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone who wants a calm stay in New York. The apartment is a little ways off from Manhattan (it takes around 40 min to get to 42 Street), but it's still a superb location, right close to a pier where you have beautiful views on the Manhattan skyline at night. The neighborhood itself is calm and the people there were very nice and Bay Ridge Av has everything you need for grocery shopping, etc. Jason was a nice guy and very responsive when talking to him, giving us tips on where to go, etc. The apartment itself is quaint and has all the necessities for a great stay.
