This apartment was perfect for our little family. The place is comfortable, light-filled, surprisingly quiet, and located close to Brooklyn's amazing restaurants and the C and E trains. (It's a 10 minute walk to the train, and then it's about 20 minutes to midtown Manhattan.) The mighty espresso machine was quite a treat! Communication with the host was speedy and easy, and she went out of her way with little kindnesses (for example, lending a warm winter coat of her child's to ours). We would recommend this apartment to any couple or family seeking a pleasant, relaxing home base for a NYC trip!
