We stayed for 3 nights in this perfectly located apartment. The neighbourhood was great, with everything you need on our doorstep from quirky coffee shops, to grocery stores to some lovely bars and restaurants. Then a short 10 minute walk to either the subway or the East River ferry will get you into Manhattan in no time. The apartment was lovely, clean and given the freezing weather, it was comfortably warm and cosy. Jeanne is a great host and was extremely accommodating when we needed to check out late as our flight wasn't until late at night. Overall, after staying in Manhattan once before, I would definitely stay in Brooklyn again, for a slightly different view of NYC.
