I want to thank Christine for being an excellent host. Her home is immaculate and I had a wonderful stay that exceeded my expectations. The house is on a neat, quiet street of well kept brownstone homes. It is a short walk from a stop on the Q train line. There are two small markets right outside the subway. Along the walk to the house, you pass a fruit market, a bagel shop, and an assortment of restaurants. I had no difficulty finding my way to the house or letting myself in based on Christine’s instructions. I met her that evening and found her to be very pleasant hostess. I travel alone so I noticed the entrance to the apartment was very secure. I am a light sleeper and noticed the block was very quiet. I hardly believed I was in a city. Christine mentioned that her family was two levels above the apartment. That explains why I didn’t hear walking around above me as I would have expected in anolder home. The mattress was very comfortable. The bathroom was very clean. This is very important to me, and I am fussy about the cleaning in vacation homes. For sightseeing, it is walking distance to Eastern Parkway. You can get to the Botanical Gardens, Prospect Park, and The Brooklyn Museum without a car or taking the subway.
I highly recommend a stay hereI. I plan to return on future trips to Brooklyn.
Thanks again to Christine for her gracious hospitality.
