We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Maria’s place. It is just as depicted and extremely neat and clean. The apartment is centrally located and close to really good dining and Brooklyn attractions. We walked everywhere. It is only a couple of blocks to the subway, so easy to get into Manhattan. We definitely look forward to a return stay. As indicated in other reviews, the steps could be daunting if you have large luggage or a lot of it, but were no problem for us.
