We had a great stay at Devon's beautiful small apartment in Brooklyn. Devon was a thoughtful host, very helpful with some initial booking queries and then available when we needed anything during our stay.

The apartment is exactly as the pictures demonstrate, beautifully furnished and the kitchen has everything you need for pretty extensive cooking. It is the basement flat of Devon's recently refurbished Brooklyn brownstone.

The area isn't one of Brooklyn's main hotspots but it is only five minutes to the C train at Clinton-Washington and from there it's ten minutes to Brooklyn Bridge, 20 minutes to Downtown Manhattan, 25 minutes to Midtown and 30 minutes to Central Park, all without changing trains. Less then 10 minutes walk away is the G train which gets to Williamsburg in 15 minutes. So if you're willing to travel a little you can get to everything very quickly and the area itself is clearly gentrifying, with a number of nice restaurants and cafes within walking distance. I must say that with a young family (two small children) we felt very safe and lots of young families in the area.

We will remember our time here very fondly and thank Devon and Kassandra for their very warm welcome.
