This charming, large and peaceful apt lies on the border of pretty Clinton Hill in Brooklyn, it is a special, bright slice of heaven and perfect for your Summer in Brooklyn. I was an Airbnb Superhost and have been for the past 10 years :) The apt is in a quiet, pre-war building, unique, spacious with charm and lots of light and comfort. Two great working ACs, one in bedroom and one in living room. We’re also only a 15 min ride to downtown Manhattan, West Village and SOHO on the C train. This is an elevator building. Easy Self check in. The apt is in an area between Fort Greene and Bed Stuy on the border of pretty Clinton Hill, where the apt is located.

Bedroom is large and has a comfy Queen sized bed. Kitchen with breakfast nook is drenched with sunlight as is the large living room space with plenty of books. Deep bathtub and very nice shower that is loved by all past guests. If you open the shower window in the summer time it can feel like an outdoor shower! :) Make sure you take a stroll in the Clinton hill & Fort Greene neighborhood during your stay to discover its special beauty as it’s a landmark historical area with so much to offer and see! The neighborhood is filled with highly rated restaurants, bars and cafes. Popular spots of BK and true borough staples just steps away. Fan Fan doughnuts anyone? The famous Biggie Smalls Mural where the popular and artistic Bed Stuy neighborhood begins is also a few blocks away.
It's a 20 min walk to Fort Greene Park, BAM and Prospect Park, Navy Yard, Barclays stadium, downtown Brooklyn and Dekalb Market Hall.

Help yourself to anything in the kitchen. There is coffee and tea and other essentials. Buzzer intercom for deliveries is located in the foyer by the square mirror to let anyone into the building. Press the ‘Door’ button for a few seconds to open both doors. If you’re having friends over you’ll have to let us know please, as this is a quiet building and noisy parties are not encouraged. Smart TV is equipped with Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, Amazon Prime, Peacock, Roku and more. You may use all that are already signed in if you don't have them :)

The building is also on a bright and very chill, tree-lined street with plenty of street parking throughout the day and night. Just note street cleaning signs if you need to move a car in the morning.

The radio player has blue tooth access so you can hook up your playlists and podcasts straight from your smart phone and play it on there, just turn knob to the blue tooth icon and pair it with your device through 'Crosley'. You can look through the record collection but the record player is on pause for now. Please respect the ‘personal storage’ closets which are of course off limits. The right side closet facing the bathroom by the bedroom is completely free and available for you to use with lots of space and hangers. The ironing board and iron are also located there, with an extra tower fan if you need it during the summers in addition to AC in the bedroom and living room.
