If you want an excellent Brooklyn location, excellent accommodations, and an excellent host, this is the one. It is across a park, around the corner is a small boutique restaurant, one block is a corner grocery store with anything you need, including great sandwiches. I was with my 70 yr old brother on this trip, and still it was an easy walk to the subway, and to the heart of Greenpoint. The apartment is clean, quiet, well organized, private, and just spacious to be most comfortable. Our host Summer is a delightful and charming lady, who was very welcoming, most responsive, and accommodating. Because her space is on a lower floor, we felt as we had the whole apartment to ourself. My wife and I will not look any further when planning our next trip to Brooklyn. I am looking forward to have her meet Summer.
