We loved our time in this apartment. It was the perfect location for exploring Brooklyn but with easy access to Manhattan too. The apartment had everything we might need, especially for travelling with our 1 year son, including highchair and travel cot. Highlights for eating and provisions for us in the area were - Union Market grocery store, Cobble Hill Coffee Shop, Kitchen at Cobble Hill, Mooburger, Watty and Meg, Fish Tales. Highlights for activities were Brooklyn Bridge Park, Prospect Park Zoo and the many playgrounds around the area. Would highly recommend and hope to be back someday.
