So glad I discovered this place! If you are looking for a place to stay in Brooklyn but that's well connected to Manhattan etc, then Jewel's place is indeed a gem. I stayed in the Rose Room for 2 nights. It's very prettily decorated space, with so many thoughtful touches - everything from a range of tour guide and background info books on NYC (and Brooklyn specifically), travel adaptors, umbrellas for the rain, a generous range of kitchen amenities including espresso coffee and snacks in a spotless kitchen. Jewel is a very relaxed and generous host - she is busy working on the weekends so I didn't see much but still felt completely at home and at ease as she was always readily available by text or email. Very close to Prospect Park and the 3 mins away from the B and Q subway lines that can take you directly to central Manhattan.
