Marek and Johanna welcomed us warmly. Marek made sure we were oriented to the apartment and its workings. When we asked about the hot water supply after a cool shower, it was turned up immediately. Appreciated the fan and heat controls so we could be at settings that we liked. All the details and fittings were well thought out. Overall the apartment is very comfortable, quiet, and convenient. The space was very clean; the décor is spare. It is supplied with everything a traveler might need for self-catering, Note: there is no microwave for those wanting to make speedy meals. The location has a lot to offer with a choice of food shops nearby and a very close subway stop for line C.
It is a great part of Brooklyn to stay - in the middle of a historic district, with free parking - what more could you ask for?
