We are a family of four (2 adults, 10yr old, 8 yr old) and the garden apartment was a little too small for us. Using the sofa bed as an actual bed took away most of the apartment seating unless we continued to fold up/unfold the bed each day-which felt like a hassle. The apartment was clean and the host left snacks and a binder full of very useful information for guests to orient themselves to the neighborhood. Those touches were thoughtful and we appreciated them. The walk to/from public transport was further than we’d like with kids in tow, especially at night. Overall we’d recommend the stay at the garden apartment to a single person or couple who was planning to stay local and not make many trips into NYC or other spots outside of Brooklyn.
