In July 2018 my 14-years old daugther and I have stayed for 12 days in Michele's appartment in Brooklyn. My 19-years old son came over for three days. We visited NYC for the first time. It was a real pleasure to stay in Michele's very clean, stilish and comfortable place, which is situated in a beautiful tree-lined street with authentic brownstone houses. I's a quiet appartment with a garden, an entrance of its own and a lot of privacy. Michele was a great host who responded quickly, positive and flexibel to all our questions. Her appartment is very well equiped with everything you'll need. Also very good wifi, a huge television with Netflix and a good working airco. We also liked the multicultural nabourhood. The're some Deli's around, a very nice supermarket with lots of fresh food and several small bars, nice and trendy places for coffee/breakfast/lunch and cosy restaurants. It's only 10-15 minutes walking to the nearest subway station where you can take the A-train to Manhattan. Traveling time to Manhattan varies between 45-65 minutes from door-to-door. We've had a very good time in Michele's place and we'll recommend it to everyone who likes to stay in Brooklyn!
