The apartment is lovely, spacious and very clean. Samuel and Gladys are lovely hosts, took us to the local stores and showed us round a little. Very friendly!
The two bedrooms have loads of the space and the shared area is great. Very good wifi, TV and equipped kitchen. The shower is fantastic.
It’s perfect if you’re heading in to the city and staying there for the majority of the day. It’s about 40 minutes to get in to Manhattan on the subway. The nearest station is Ralph Avenue about a 8-10 minute walk from the apartment. It’s on the C line which is perfect as it goes through central Brooklyn and all the way up the centre of Manhattan. The area that the apartment is in is lovely and chilled although not much by way of bars or restaurants within walking distance. The only slight downside is that the area immediately around the station felt a bit sketchy after dark. Absolutely fine in the day but we usually got a cab either from Manhattan to the apartment or the station to apartment so as to avoid that little bit of walk. Genuinely only the slightest downside and that’s nothing the hosts can control. All round a lovely apartment and host and would 100% go back in a heart beat.
