The house is located in a very quiet part of Brooklyn. A nice and friendly environment with nice shops in the neighborhood. The metro is just 5 minutes walk away from the apprtment. It is just a few stops with the metro to get to Manhattan or to the center of Williamsburg. Also Greenpoint is very nice and upcoming. Bobby is very helpful and responded quickly when we had a question. The only thing that could be better was the central heating of the apartment. It was never cold, but sometimes too hot. You cannot adjust the heating yourself.
