We loved staying in Elizabeth's apartment in Brooklyn. The area in which it is located is a great spot: lovely street with great local restaurants and bars. Better still is the access it offers to public transport (it's close to a number of subway stations and ferries - facilitating easy travel to all parts of the city).
The apartment is quiet, well appointed and clean. Elizabeth is a great host who was very communicative and helpful. We would love to stay again next time we are in NYC.
