This is in a perfect location - 15 mins away from NYC. The subway is a 10 minute walk. We walked over the Brooklyn bridge one morning - took around 25 minutes. There are lots of lovely restaurants around - Grimaldi's Pizza and Julianna's. Both delicious pizza and always had long queues! We went to a bakery on Henry Street called 'Cranberry's' which had some great bites to eat. I would definitely recommend Nazillas' place. It is basic but everything you need for a great stay. I would definitely return.
