The apartment was great; much more space than we needed or expected. We spent two nights in NYC while passing through on a working vacation with this as our Brooklyn base. The neighborhood was great...short walk to coffee and bagels in the morning and more restaurants than you can make decisions for lunch and dinner, not to mention great beer. The train access made our trips to Manhattan and Queens very easy. We had to bring a car, which I knew from previous Brooklyn experience was going to be a little challenging. We arrived in town around 10:30am on a Tuesday and parked about 3.5 blocks away ( after 20 min of searching). No restrictions so we were able to park and forget about the car for 48 hours.
