We have stayed in a number of places in Brooklyn over the last few years, and Vida's place is by far the best! It was amazingly clean, close to the subway, and was quite spacious. The apartment is very stylishly decorated, but is definitely minimalist with basic amenities. Vida was communicative and quick to answer any questions I had. Check in was super easy and Vida was great about being flexible with our arrival/departure. We were travelling with our 4 month old for the first time, so being on time is no longer our thing! Vida made it easy for us to access the apartment when we arrived after 1 am and let us stay an extra hour on check out day. She also supplied a pack and play for us, which was awesome! The extra bedroom would be fabulous for families travelling with slightly older children as well. Overall, Vida's place served as the perfect home base for our weekend in NYC :-) Highly recommend!
