This is lovely, cosy apartment in a nice part of Brooklyn. Very conveniently placed for subway, shops, restaurants etc. It is a few doors along from a fire station and not the quietest (quite a bit of early morning noise from apartment above!) but overall we were really pleased with the location and didn't feel overly disturbed. The hosts gave us some excellent tips for local restaurants, several of which we tried and would recommend- Hugos, Purity diner, Provini, Fonda. We also loved the bagels from Bagel Hole! Prospect Park is a short walk away and we really enjoyed the Saturday market and Sunday Smorgasburg. The area feels very safe and there are lots of nice grocery stores, bakeries, juice bars etc very close at hand. The apartment itself is a little quirky, with a homely feel. Past guests had left behind a few items e.g. beer, groceries, toiletries, some of which came in handy! The bed is soft and on the short side, a bit of a challenge for my 6'3" husband, but I found it very comfortable. Plenty of soft towels are provided. Bath is very short but shower was good! As tea loving Brits we did miss having a kettle but managed by boiling water on the gas stove! Wifi is excellent and we appreciated having the free Netflix and Amazon Prime. Overall we were really happy with our choice and appreciated our hosts' great communication, advice and flexibility in allowing us a late check out.
