The first floor of Dan and Jarret's exquisite brownstone in Bed-Stuy was just what I needed for my short time in New York: a cool, comfortable, beautifully designed living, dining, bedroom, and bath space that welcomed me after two 90-degree, 30,000-step days. Being one of only a handful of brownstones on its MacDonough Street block contributed to the peaceful atmosphere, as did the lovely neighbors I got to hang out with on several occasions. That being said, it was super close to the hustle of Fulton and the rest of Bed-Stuy's diverse shops and restaurants, plus a few blocks from two subways stations. I'd definitely stay here again!
