__________________________________________________ 280 WASHINGTON {BOARDING HOUSE} Clinton Hill - recently voted the Most Livable Neighborhood in Brooklyn by L-Magazine! 'What an amazing home...this is not just your ordinary house... it has the intrigue and attention to detail of an art museum with the charm and personality of your best friend! The food is delicious, the hosts are incredibly kind and generous. Never hesitate to make this home away from home! I adore this house (and its owners)! ' ~ Natalie 'A gorgeous restored Brooklyn brownstone with airy modernist updates: it was one of the most beautiful houses I've ever been in. … I've essentially been living in luxury hotels for a few years… [this] was one of the top experiences at a hotel that I've ever had.” ~ Sarah B. 'It was such a delight to spend the night in your incredible home. What you offer is unique, just like yourselves and your space. I still marvel at the way you combine retro and modern, high quality design with accessibility and warmth, and gracious hospitality with high end service. What you both have made at 280 Washington is very special ... Not only did I have a wonderful nights sleep and gourmet breakfast, I left much cooler than when I arrived.' ~ Courtney 'This was our first experience as an alternative to boutique hotels, and this place beats out on such hotels not only in terms of quality, service, and price performance but with the added personal touches as well.' ~ Rana _________________________________________________ Built in 1887, this magnificent landmarked 10,000 square foot historic brownstone is one of Brooklyn's architectural gems.

I rented the top floor which has two beautiful bedrooms and a giant master bathroom. The top floor comfortably accommodated the four of us. The home has been impeccably restored and is without a doubt the most stunning brownstone I've ever had the pleasure of visiting. The home is in my favorite neighborhood in Brooklyn and is close to fantastic restaurants and shopping. Jessica and Doug were gracious hosts and were incredibly helpful with travel logistics, restaurant suggestions etc...The highlight of our trip was by far the daily breakfasts in Jessica and Doug's stunning dining room. Each morning Jessica prepared a different breakfast with local and seasonal ingredients. I've never had a more delicious breakfast anywhere, such an amazing way to begin the day. I definitely plan on staying again. ~ Charlie, Los Angeles Keywords: Victorian,Clinton Hill,Williamsburg,Park Slope, Brooklyn Heights, New York,Manhattan,brownstone,mansion,280 Washington,suite, house,rooms, townhouse,luxury,New York, Fort Greene, nightly,hotel,bed and breakfast, b&b,hotel,280 Washington,,inn
