The perfect base to explore both Brooklyn and Manhattan. There are numerous transport routes that can get you into Times Sq within 30 minutes and nice local area with some big shops nearby too. Hosts were lovely and allowed me to come and go and never disturbed me and in particular the cats were very sweet and curious and would come and greet you if you left your door open. In all a very pleasant, homely stay in what can be a very loud and busy city!
