Carla is a very good host, she communicates very well and responds to any issue quickly. The apartment is in a cute brownstone and a nice quiet street but just a block away from restaurants and bars so you can go out easily but have a nice quiet place to sleep and relax. I live in brooklyn and rented this place for my parents so I know the area. If you are looking for a place to stay will traveling to NYC pick this spot, gives you a great Brooklyn feel and incredibly easy to get into Manhattan with all the trains right there.
