Incredible value for the quality!
Connie's apartment is located in a lively yet peaceful area in Brooklyn just a 5-6 min walk from an accessible metro station. 20 minute commute to many bustling areas.
I will say that if you have many commitments in Manhattan (midtown, west village etc..) prepare for a slightly longer commute of 30+ minutes. We didn't find this to be a downside as we were aware of that beforehand and thoroughly enjoyed all that Brooklyn had to offer. Late night trains 24/7 but they run less frequently so prepare for that if you stay out late.
Lovely bars and restaurants nearby the apartment as well, so don't discount that.
The apartment was sparkling clean and so beautiful. Room was actually more comfy than expected given the typical size of NYC accommodations (hotel or otherwise.) My boyfriend and I had no complaints!
Bed was very comfortable, private bathroom is always a plus.
I'm not sure if we even saw Connie throughout the duration if our stay aside from a 30 second interaction with her boyfriend (I'm assuming.) It did not seem as though she was home when we were, so privacy is definitely valued if anything!
Overall we would love to stay in Connie's apartment again. It was accessible yet quiet and thoughtful, exactly as described.
