We really enjoyed staying in this part of Brooklyn and used the apartment as a base to explore the whole New York area. The F, G and R trains are a short walk away and we found it easy to walk to Brooklyn Heights and all points in between. Supermarkets and other shops are in close proximity.
The apartment is extremely spacious and the washer and dryer was much appreciated as we had limited clothing. The stairs are steep, so potential guests need to take this into account. Shahla was a delightful host, interacting only when required; she did not intrude at all. This is not a modern apartment but the bed was huge and really comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.
