If I had a choice to stay on Manhattan or Brooklyn I would choose Brooklyn all the way. This cosy apartment, as described in the ad, is nestled in Williamsburg and probably easier to get to and from Manhattan than staying in Manhattan itself. Close to great cafes and even an Aussie style cafe.. (If you're from Australia you'll understand how much we value barista coffee!) One easy quick train ride to the centre of NY makes for a less stressful subway experience for the novice.
The bathroom was newly renovated however was a little tricky to negotiate due to the size as it is a combined toilet/shower but I'm sure an addition of a small shelf will help to have a place to rest clothes while drying off or changing.
Nicole was fantastic in providing info and communication was excellent. The provision of a map on the coffee table was also saviour.
This is a great apartment with a homely feel with plenty of wardrobe and drawer space.
hurry up and book as it is good value for $. Remember there is more to NY than Manhattan -Brooklyn is the best!
