Carly's place is gorgeous. We've just stayed in the summer and Brooklyn is beautiful in the golden hour. Her place isn't far from public transport and is the perfect hideout to relax after long days exploring Brooklyn or Manhattan- definitely recommend taking the ferry if possible! Beautiful views of Manhattan as you go in.
Not to mention Carly- she is a fabulous host and her family are kind (and quite) so no particular noise from upstairs or the street! 100% recommend
