Our experience in Jake's apartment was very nice. The place is perfect for two people, very comfortable. The neighborhood is nice, there is a metro station few steps from the building main door and the Prospect Park in front of it, you only have to cross the street. We used the time in Jake's apartment for explore a little more Brooklyn as well as enjoy the beach. The Prospect Park is awsome and more beautiful then the Central Park. The Botanic Garden and The Brooklyn Museum is pretty close, just few block away. The apartment is interesting also for people that want to explore Manhattan, as the subway lines B and Q stops in the metro station just around the corner and run to Manhattan all day time, so you quick go and back from the Big Apple easily. Jake was very nice, very helpful teaching us about the facilities close to the apartment and also keeping in contact to see how things were going on. I definitly recommend this place.
