If you want the true NY/ BROOKLYN experience, this is a must. Francis lives in the basement of the brownstone therefore he is on hand for anything without being invasive, you only have to message him & he is with you within 5 minutes , great guy & fabulous accommodation. I stayed here for 2 weeks & absolutely LOVED it, spotless clean, close to 2 minute walk to the metro that will get you into Manhattan within 15 minutes. All the neighbours & local community are super friendly & are proud to have you staying in their community, I am going back in the summer & I am booking to stay here agin :) ONCE IN A LIFETIME TO FEEL LIKE A PROPER New Yorker, EVEN SAT ON THE STOOPM MOST DAYS.
