We loved our stay here for my son's first trip to NYC (we called it "Broadway, Baseball, and Buildings"). The location was perfect for us ... neighborhood was peaceful in that big city way. Close to the train to get in and do touristy stuff if that's your plan, but also a great neighborhood to hang out in and just be in Brooklyn. Apartment was super clean, actually quite spacious for a 1 bedroom, and everything felt new inside. Neighbors were very friendly. Made for a great stay all the way around.
