Our stay in Brooklyn was lovely thanks to Madison's apartment! Our stay happened to be during the 'polar vortex' and Madison was very helpful when we needed the heat turned up even though she was dealing with burst pipes and heating issues of her own. The location close to both the J and the L subway lines was very convenient and there was a couple of supermarkets and plenty of convenience stores with in a few minutes walk. All in all we had a very cozy and enjoyable week in the snow!
