We just spent 4 nights in Noemi and Robert's sweet ground floor apartment. The place is very nice-fresh and newly renovated, clean and comfortable, really nicely decorated. Noemi and her family are very friendly and were responsive to any of our questions or requests. The neighborhood is a little edgy at night, but during the day people are out and about, sitting on their steps, watching the world go by. We were crazy enough to have a car, but were able to find parking without any trouble--moving for street cleaning on Friday morning. The location was handy for any of our Brooklyn destinations--getting in to Manhattan took 45+ minutes by subway. We happily recommend this nice place.
