Best area ever!! Seriously if you want to stay in Brooklyn stay at Laura’s! The space is so close to McCarren Park (our favorite), surrounded by yummy food with a fun night life, right next to a great bakery (Martha’s), and the best part is being a 5 minute walk from the L. We loved going up to the roof for some fresh air or a sunset. I would strongly suggest packing light if possible. The walk up is 5 flights and there isn’t a ton of room to keep multiple suitcases or store your clothing, that’s the only thing I wish I could change! Also you’re a 3 minute walk from Whole Foods which is so nice if you feel like staying in and cooking in the apartment! Laura is very communicative and the booking/stay/check out process was so easy. Would 100% stay again! Thanks Laura!
