Clean, modern apartment - perfect for couples
This apartment is exactly as the photos show - modern, bright, clean and with everything you need - with a small outdoors space to sit and enjoy the sun. The bathroom has a fantastic bath and rain shower with constant hot water. The bed is comfortable, ample wardrobe space, fridge, microwave and best of all a coffee machine so you can wake up to your very own Starbucks!
Emma, the owner, emailed me back immediately, answered all my questions thoroughly. She was always around during my stay and very friendly and helpful as she knows the area well.
The subway stop, Franklin Ave, is just a few minutes walk to take you to Manhattan or pretty Brooklyn Heights (I walked the bridge after Sunday brunch which was lovely). Also about eight minutes walk you can get the subway (Bedford-Nostrand Ave) line up to Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg - a mix of San Francisco and London's Camden, it has a relaxed student feel and is the best place in the area for coffee or meals to then get a cab back. There aren't many cafes or restaurants immediately around the apartment so if you're planning to eat at home, buy food before you return.
If you are arriving at JFK airport, the A line subway takes you to Nostrand Ave which is about five minutes walk from the apartment and takes about 50 minutes.
The area is suburban and quiet. I felt at home in the apartment and it's a great opportunity for seeing the alternative, less touristy side of New York. Ideal for young couples or savvy travellers.
