Our family stayed here for 3 weeks in August and had an amazing time. We are from the neighborhood originally and can testify to the fact that Julia’s place is in a central location. There are a ton of great restaurants and shops within walking distance, also the Whole Foods and the G/F trains. You could even walk to Prospect Park if you felt like a longer stroll. The house is just as gorgeous as it appears in the photographs. We regret not being able to use the backyard due to the extreme August heat and mosquitos, but I bet it’s nice to sit out there in the Fall. One thing to note is that there are tenants in the downstairs unit and I think the running of small feet in the morning (our 4 yr old daughter) may have made them grumpy on more than one occasion. So not the most private if you have young kids, but other than that we’d highly recommend Julia’s place to other travelers.
