We spent one week in Brighton Beach. Oleg was a very nice host. He gave us some good tips for the area and was so helpful during our stay. We liked the clean and convenient and fully equipped apartment near the beach with good shopping facilities and restaurants. The area is quiet during the night. Therefore I can truly recommend this cute apartment and would stay there again and again ;-)
The apartment itself is near the subway, about five minutes away. It takes about 40 minutes to go to Manhatten by subway and one line goes directly there. The JFK is about 20 minutes away from the apartment by cap.
