Manon is a delightful host who made us feel relaxed and at home. The room is large and spacious, the bed is comfortable and the bed linen is clean and good quality. Due to the layout of the apartment, the bedroom is off to one side and so feels a bit more private and had a window for some natural light, though not a view of anything special. The bathroom has a decent shower, and it was easy each evening to check with Manon when the bathroom would be free. The apartment is two minutes walk to a subway station, which made it really easy to travel; it took around 20 minutes to get to the first station in Manhattan, but 35-40 minutes to midtown (eg Empire State and Rockefeller). The area by the station has a brilliant fresh grocery store, Foodtown, along with other stores eg Walgreens, and the area feels very safe. Manon is lovely and friendly but not overbearing, so you can relax in the bedroom without feeling that you should be socialising. We had five nights here, mainly spent being tourists in Manhattan, so it was a great place to use as a base, but I wish it had been just a few stations closer to Manhattan - however, plenty to see in Brooklyn, including an amazing huge gospel church, the Brooklyn Tabernacle. Overall, very happy.
