Our stay in Antonella's apartment was fantastic. We absolutely loved the apartment and the area. It was great to be in New York and feel like a local and not a tourist. The area felt really safe and family orientated. It was so quiet at night in the apartment it was hard to believe you were in the middle of a city and despite my reservations, I slept so well. There are loads of fabulous restaurants and cafés a couple of minutes walk away - it was great to be able to dander out in the mornings and pick up coffee and delicious bagels in minutes. The transfer to Manhattan is super easy and quick but it was great to have a peaceful base to return to each evening. Also, if you are a basketball fan, the apartment is less than a 10 min walk from the Brooklyn Nets stadium. We had a fantastic night there. Having 2 bathrooms with great showers was a bonus and meant we could get out quicker in the mornings. All in all, it was a brilliant find and we would definitely stay here again.
