Great place in Brooklyn, New York

We found a great place, well communicated in a very peaceful & coloured Brooklyn. Michelle was great solving any problem we could have and the backyard, rooms and facilities were great. We would come again, if needed. Thanks! Teo

A Good Place To Stay

We are a family of five (aged from our 20’s to 70’s) from the UK who stayed in this Brooklyn apartment for 2 weeks. We felt quite safe walking around the neighbourhood. The apartment is well located for exploring New York being a 5-10 minute walk from the express metro line that takes you directly (or through links) to the vast majority of tourist places in Manhattan, normally in under 30 minutes. We found the 7 day MTA pass at $29 both convenient and economical. The same applies to the 7 day New York Pass bought in advance via the internet at a discount. There is a well-stocked supermarket (Fine Fare) nearby which has long opening hours. We ate out at two local restaurants. One called Peaches had friendly staff, good food and a nice atmosphere. We felt rushed in the other one called Saraghina. We also ordered in a Chinese takeaway from China King (on Marcus Blvd) who provided generous portions of hot tasty food at excellent value. The apartment itself was comfortable and clean and the rooms were spacious. The headroom in the basement bedroom made it unsuitable for anybody tall (over 5ft 9ins). The kitchen had everything that was needed. The garden area provided a pleasant place to relax during warm evenings. The ready access available to the internet and a telephone made it easy to research and organise our trips out. We also met occasionally with Leecia the property manager who was very pleasant and helpful answering our questions and sorting out the odd problem. Overall we all felt we could widely recommend this apartment, although those planning to regularly use the Metro should be aware that there are a lot more stairs and fewer escalators on the NY system than in most UK Underground stations.

Séjour de 10 jours en avril 2011 Excelent séjour à Brooklyn dans un quartier très calme (ça fait du bien après une journée à Manhattan) et une maison au charme fou. Grands espaces, très bien équipée (TVs, Internet, jardin barbecue...), confortable et surtout reposante. Le quartier est très rassurant et rentrer à minuit n'est absolument pas un problème. Nous étions 9 (4 adultes, 4 ados, 1 enfants) et nous ne sommes pas marchés sur les pieds. A 5 minutes de la station Utica Av., en prenant la ligne A express, nous sommes à 20 minutes du coeur de Manhattan, un régal ! Métro très sécurisant également avec des new yorkais très serviables et toujours prêts à vous indiquer votre chemin. Si vous avez une voiture, pas de pb, on arrive à stationner facilement dans la rue. Qq bémols mais tellement mineurs par rapport au plaisir que nous avons eu : - il manque un peu de vaisselle (et de chaises) pour 9, mais là c'est un peu la mode américaine, vous avez toute la journée pour vous sustenter, vous êtes en vacances, pas pour faire la cuisine, - le manque de contact avec la propriétaire et Leecia que nous n'avons en fait jamais rencontré (mais le contact par mails et téléphone étaient excellents). Dans le quartier, vous pourrez trouver ce qu'il faut pour vous ravitailler et ce jusque tard et tous les jours (superette + cave à vin très sympa et pas si honéreux que ça compte tenu du change). En bref à conseiller très très fortement !!! Des français emballés !

Stayed here with 4 others during my birthday weekend and really enjoyed our stay. We had three floors to ourselves which made it feel like home. The owner Michelle is really nice though you may not see her, you know she is there some where and available to answer any questions you ask. Would I stay again? Definitely. At first, I thought we would have a party of 12 and Michelle even offered her other unit (which is where she resides) which would have given us 4 floors. We used every inch of our space. My boyfriend enjoyed having his own area in the basement. The train station was a few blocks away - after a long day walking around in Manhattan you can get a little tired walking about to the apartment. Michelle even let us keep our bags in the hallway why we waited for our ride to pick us up to go to the airport.

My group of 12 persons from Norway had some wonderful 3 days stay in this house. 20 minutes by subway to Manhattan, plenty of space and a good outdoor area made this house a good place to stay. The neighbourhood was nice and quiet, and we had the chance to visit the great Italian restaurant Saraghina. Everyone who visit this area should eat here! We thank Michelle Majors for giving good information about the area and the house, and for helping us out with transportation our departure day. We would love to stay here again for another NYC-stay!

This is a spacious well kept apartment, loads of room to spread out. Utica Ave, subway about 5 minutes walk, Manhatten about 15 minutes away on the subway taking the express line. Went to two excellent restaurants on the door step, Peaches was good wholesome soul food, loved the grits with mushroom, Saranghina was a lovely Italian. Good wine store about a block away. The apartment is in a nice residential neighbourhood.

We had an excellent time in NY! The brownstone was conveniently located in a friendly neighborhood. Subway access was nearby allowing for easy access to Manhattan. Our teens appreciated having room to relax late at night watching movies and preparing snacks in the kitchen. The beds were amazingly comfortable after long days of sight seeing and bathroom accomodations were very nice. We had plenty of space for the 6 of us! The property manager was very helpful with details of how best to navigate the city as well as making recommendations of where to go for groceries, restaurants and the best place to find a great cup of coffee each morning. This was the first time our family has rented a vacation home and it was a wonderful experience. We definately would do it again!

We rented this property to attend our daughter's graduation and were pleasantly surprised by the amount of space in this Brownstone. It's in a nice neighborhood and everything is within walking distance. Michelle (the owner) was very accomodating and has done a wonderful job of decorating the property. Our other 2 daughters who traveled with us wanted to make sure that next time we travel to NY we stay at the same property. The house is fully furnished and the kitchen and the bathrooms were well stocked
