Our stay at this Vrbo was nothing short of exceptional. The host went above and beyond to ensure our questions were answered promptly and thoroughly, making the booking process a breeze. Upon arrival, we were blown away by how the house exceeded the expectations set by the photos. The space was beautifully furnished, incredibly clean, and the amenities were top-notch. We can't recommend this Vrbo enough and will absolutely be booking with this host again in the future!

the property is exactly (if not better) as shown in the listing photo. the neighbourhood is very convenient, very close to the subway station that can get you around very easily. there are also a lot of cute cafes, restaurants, and yoga studios nearby. eileen is an amazing host! she gave me such good recommendations for some neighbourhood restaurants and bar finds, and shared the history of the building with me! would definitely come back again!

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. It is in a perfect location close to transportation, shopping, restaurants & parks. The host was communicative, responsive & a wonderful resource.

From beginning to end, Eileen was great in making my stay an easy and wonderful one. The property is gorgeous with a beautiful back patio and really spacious bedroom/living room. The place was well appointed and felt like home. Would highly recommend!

This was the perfect spot for me for a 2 month stay in Brooklyn. I booked the apartment mostly for the kitchen, which I needed for work. It had everything I needed and the space to do it in, which is what I needed. Beyond that, I enjoyed the ample space, quirkiness, huge location convenience, and making friends with Eileen. The construction outside is tolerable. The windows really do make a huge, huge difference. I was rarely bothered despite the skyscraper being built. It’s got a lot of NYC brownstone quirks (thin ceilings/floors, steep stairs to the laundry)—but that’s what you get in New York and it’s also what makes New York special. Would certainly stay again.

This garden apartment in Brooklyn was ideal for our several month stay to help out with a new grandson. Location-a couple of blocks from major subway lines, Whole Foods, target, cvs and an Apple Store-epitomizes the magic of walkable Brooklyn. Eileen, who lives upstairs, is everything one could want in a landlady and the apartment has all the amenities. Back garden provides light during the day and pleasant outdoor sitting space. Laundry is down some stairs but handrail makes the ascent and descent manageable. No complaints. Only superlatives.

We stayed for 4 months and absolutely loved our time here!! The location couldn’t be more convenient and despite being just steps from busy Flatbush when you’re inside it truly feels like you’re in a peaceful oasis. The decor is great and feels the kitchen is very well stocked. During the warmer months we loved eating in the garden. We ended up signing a longer lease just blocks away and Eileen’s place was the perfect taste of Brooklyn living. Eileen is a great host- incredibly friendly and communicative and respectful of our privacy while being generous with inviting us into her space for drinks and meals throughout the stay.

Everything about this apartment was great: location, transportation, brownstone building and interior layout, conveniences, garden and host. Tucked a few buildings down from a busy intersection this lovely classic brownstone sits on a quiet residential street. It's not silent, for there are the urban sounds of construction heard during workdays and occasional siren, but that's part of the rhythm of a city. In contrast, our quiet residential street at home has the annoying and frequent sound of gas powered lawnmowers and leaf blowers regularly disrupting the peace. It ain't the country. The access to public transportation is outstanding. A five minute walk to a subway hub that easily connects you to Brooklyn, Manhattan and other boroughs. We never had to transfer going to Manhattan. We jogged to Brooklyn Bridge Park and Fort Greene Park, walked to Brooklyn Botanical Gardens and Prospect Park. There are great bakeries, coffee shops, cafes, bagels, restaurants from fine cuisine to fast food, stores (Whole Foods a 3-4 minute walk.), and others all within walking distance. I drove to NY experienced in the challenges of parking and traffic in the city. In most cases a car is unnecessary and more hassle than convenience. When I did need the car, I sometimes found a parking space within minutes a few blocks away, but at worst prowled the streets for 40 minutes until ultimately found a space a half mile away. The brownstone is an well maintained example of these classic historic homes. The apartment is well designed, well provisioned, very clean, secure and easy to settle into as your home during your stay. The backyard garden was a special treat for us. We ate breakfast in the shade listening to singing birds and dinners when we cooked and stayed in. It added an addition dimension of pleasure to our stay. The host is terrific. She always responded to our inquiries expediently, was friendly and warm to talk with, provided excellent recommendations and left us to enjoy the apartment as our own. As readers might gather, we loved our stay on State Street in Brooklyn.
