Perfect place !.... Near 2 subway lines going to Manhattan, 1 is direct from/to JFK airport. Grocery stores, shops and restaurants are close. DUMBO area, East River and Brooklyn bridge are at walking distance. The Promenade and its amazing view on Manhattan is at 2 blocks only. The apartment was perfectly clean, the bedding (bed and sofa) also. We found everything we needed in this apartment. We met Erin and her husband at our arrival. Very nice people. They live upstairs and are available if you need help. The street is rather quiet. And Don't be afraid of the school on the other side of the street. It doesn't make so much noice. We spent a really good time in this apartment and are ready to come back again for a next trip in New York
