The space was perfect for my needs. The small size (anyone who knows NYC knows how that goes) was more than compensated for by the amazing lush green backyard (a huge boon for doggie guests), where we relaxed at the picnic table for coffee in the morning and relaxed beneath small hanging Christmas lights for cocktails in the evening. Our late night check-in was a breeze with easy, detailed instructions for how to get into the building. The apartment had everything we needed for a comfortable stay (fridge, air conditioner, stove, big beautiful bathroom with large shower, comfy bed, plenty of space to hang clothing, etc). The location was PERFECT with easy automobile access from the BQE, a short walk to the R train (for trips into Manhattan) and close walking distance to shops and restaurants of Park Slope. We found parking right in front of the building, where our car remained safely parked for the duration of our stay. One thing I especially loved about this apartment is that due to its location in the back of the building, it was QUIET. Our host Artemie was extremely responsive to all questions, and especially helpful to me in going out of his way to help secure (from afar!) the recovery of two very important personal items I accidentally left inside the apartment. I have never had such a responsive and good natured host. Thank you, Artemie!
