Great experience, at Ed's place in Coney Island!
If you're looking for a fun and convenient place to stay in Coney Island, this is it! I stayed for a month, I swam daily in by the pier just 3 blocks from the apartment and took the Coney Island Stilwell train almost daily up to norther points (Gowanus, Park Slope, about 35 minutes away on the F), Brooklyn.
This studio apartment has a great view (as you can see from the photos) and comes with a fun menagerie of large animal sculptures to complete the amusement park / carnival vibe.
Mermaid Avenue from the apartment to the Stilwell subway stop is a busy and diverse strip––you are going to experience life as it is lived on the street in Coney Island.
All in all, I loved my stay at Ed and his wife's place. I stayed for a month, and I would go back!
