Brooklyn

We arrived on Christmas Eve night. We found the lock box easily with the keys inside. The apartment was just like the pictures. We used the blow up bed, it was comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped although we didn't cook. The shower pressure was great! The apartment was close to many good restaurants. You must eat at Kings Imperial Chinese, right around the corner. It was fantastic! There is a binder on the desk for visitors with a list of other places to eat in Brooklyn. Our son lives 2 blocks away so we will be staying here again.

Quick trip with kids

We spent 2 nights in December with 2 kids. It was very clean and included everything for basic needs. It was an easy walk to grocery store and subway. We were able to find parking on the block and also surrounding block (we had to move vehicle for street sweepers but that wasn’t a big deal) The owner Sean was very friendly and quick to respond to any communications. We discovered a newly opened restaurant Reunion that was the best mid eastern cuisine I’ve ever had! The owners did provide lots of information about local restaurants, the one we chose was closed on that day and Reunion was down the street. They also provided plenty of information about activities to do in and around the city, including specific excursions to do with kids.

Mother Daughter trip

We drove in and arrived a bit early and were greeted by the housekeeper. She was delightful and handed us our keys and we got settled. The apartment was perfect for the 2 of us. My daughter (17) slept on the air bed, which was so easy to set up in the living room and that gave each of us privacy at the end of the day. There is every food imaginable within walking distance. Think Coffee is a couple block away and delightful. We tried “Best Pizza” also and it really was great, very tiny venue but great experience. Subway is so close and easy to maneuver with maps on your phone. You put in “Times Square” and click on transit instead of drive and it will tell you trains to take and where to change. The top of the maps screens scrolls and gives you step by step directions. Makes it all so easy and takes the stress and guess work out of getting around the city. The gardens, front and back of the apartment are delightful to rest in and reflect or read a book. And last, the owners are very accessible but not intrusive. They are awesome to chat with if you have time and very welcoming to both their home and their city. On top of free parking nearby (in New York!) There is no downside. You will enjoy your time and this is a fabulous home base.

About the host

Hosted by Sean M Hingston

The TIKTOK HOUSE BROOKLYN became famous for the video documentation of our lengthy renovation. We're entertainments professionals who have owned this home since 2010 and live with our adult daughter in the upstairs duplex apt. I'm from Melbourne, Australia and my husband grew up on a farm in Toledo, Ohio. We have LOTS of family and friends visiting us all year round to stay in our garden apartment and use it as their home-away-from-home. We love helping to stay in them find their way around the city and will gladly offer you a few suggestions about NYC as well.

Why they chose this property

The best thing we ever did was to move from Manhattan's Upper West Side to our Williamsburg townhouse in 2010. Our previous neighborhood was extremely busy and loudl with massive apartment buildings blocking the sun and sky. In Williamsburg you can see the sky and it's much quieter, filled with 3-story townhouses like ours where the neighbors still sit on the front steps and enjoy the street life.

What makes this property unique

What's great about staying in Williamsburg is the EASY access to all the major sites around NYC: Times Square, Broadway, Macy's, the Empire State Building, all the museums, Central Park and the Statue of Liberty. A real delight are the VERY walkable streets around us packed with cool bakeries, coffee shops and vintage clothing stores like Stella Dallas and Amacord Vintage, the perfect cappuccino at our local bakery Setti Pani side-by-side with the art galleries, restaurants and bars. Fun finds like the Quimbly book store and graphic comics books from around the world at Sparacino's on Metropolitan Ave.
