We were delighted with Gabriela's apartment for our one week stay in Brooklyn. The place is clean and spacious, and very comfortable for two people. There's a cute garden in the back, and the morning light into the bedroom is gorgeous. The neighborhood is charming and felt very safe. It's primarily residential, but nearby Williamsburg has several great bars and restaurants worth a visit. There is a bit of a walk to the metro station, but I suspect visiting NYC, you're going to get quickly accustomed to at least a small walk anywhere. Once to the train, it's a quick, easy ride into the city. I'd definitely recommend this home to any friend visiting New York.
