This was my first visit to Brooklyn and I could not have hoped for a nicer introduction to a great neighbourhood. John and Becky are so lovely - warm and welcoming hosts with a wealth of handy information about great places to go in the area. The apartment is extremely comfortable and SO roomy, beautiful pressed metal ceilings and parquetry floors. It's an easy ride into Manhattan, and Park Slope is right outside the door; short walk to Prospect Park. Really recommend this place.
