Carly's place is great! Very spacious, close to all that Red Hook has to offer with some of the best foods the city has to offer - particularly BBQ and lobster rolls. Its also very close to the grocery store if you're looking to stock up. Getting around Brooklyn (and Manhattan) can be pretty easy if you're comfortable using the Citi bikes, and the ferry to Wall St is super fast and fun! Keep in mind a full family lives upstairs, so there is some noise, but nothing crazy. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a laid back vibe in Brooklyn as a respite to busy Manhattan.
