Annette's place was great! This was our first experience with Airbnb and we were not disappointed. Annette was very responsive. We drove to New York City and arrived later than expected but Annette was very helpful and had a key waiting for us. The apartment is just like the pictures! Everything was very clean and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything you need to prepare meals. We were able to find street parking in the neighborhood and later found a spot right across from the apartment which was super convenient. Although we had our car we chose to take the subway to get around town as it was just a short five minute walk from Annette's. It was an easy commute into Manhattan from Carroll Garden. We loved the neighborhood!! It is quaint and has many shops and restaurants. We felt very safe walking about at night and spent our evenings exploring Carroll Garden and Cobble Hill. We recommend Annette's!
