This apartment is unforgettable! We could see the Empire State and Chrysler Buildings from the window whilst we had dinner, which you would certainly pay for at a hotel or restaurant. The apartment is a bargain for what you get: the host has thought of everything in this quirky place and the touches were very much appreciated. He has some great recommendations for the area, the apartment is situated well and has easy access to other places - we found the Greenpoint ferry terminal very convenient (only $2.50 for a single ride to Dumbo or Manhattan). Would highly recommend and would love to stay again.
