My partner and I had a wonderful stay at this apartment. The location was super convenient, only a 5-minute walk to the nearest subway station (Marcy Av) and only one stop to Manhattan, so if you want to visit Manhattan or go the other way further into Brooklyn or Queens, it's super easy and quick. It's much smarter to stay here than pay the premium to stay in Manhattan when it's only one stop into the city from this BnB anyway!
The apartment is beautifully furnished. You can tell that the hosts are film and art lovers with how the space has been styled. Even in our room, reel-to-reel film decorations were on the walls, making the apartment feel personal and authentic to the hosts' character. Our room was huge for a New York apartment. We had a massive, very comfy double bed, wardrobe, TV and shelving unit, which, for a week-long stay, was plenty of space for our clothes, suitcases, bags, etc. I would have happily stayed for much longer.
Susan & Marko made us feel very comfortable, always being open for a quick chat at the start and the end of the day if we saw them while we came in and out of the building. Susan would offer recommendations for the day and how to get in and out of Manhattan and beyond, which was really helpful, especially for our first few days in NYC.
Overall, I couldn't recommend a better place to stay if you visit NYC. The size and comfort of your room, the convenience of the location and the friendliness of the hosts will not be matched by any other hotel or BnB this close to Manhattan at this price.
Thanks again for a lovely stay, Susan!
