We had an absolutely brilliant nine days. Jake & Melody were very helpful with insider tips and so flexible with the check-in and out times, we were able to enjoy every minute to the full. Even when we locked ourselves out late at night, Melody was quickly on hand to sort it out! Use the Lincoln Road subway exit/entrance (otherwise you walk round the whole block!) and the apartment is literally yards away from the metro to Manhattan (15 minutes) or to the seafront and hot dogs of Coney Island. Fall out of bed and you're in the beautiful Prospect Park opposite. This felt like a very safe neighbourhood to be staying in, with 24 hour access to everywhere.
