Neighborhood Overview: The block is super quiet and tree-lined with friendly neighbors. Local trivia-- our block's street and sidewalk was designed by I.M. Pei (the architect who designed, among many famous projects, the pyramid entrance outside the Louvre). Michael Jackson also filmed a scene from The Wiz on our street, too!

Notes: We have a dog (she will be with us and not at the apartment). We keep the apartment impeccably clean but if you have a severe dog allergy and can't be in an apartment that a dog lives in even when it is extremely clean this is something to be aware of. One of our reviews mentions that the heat was loud in the apartment. When these guests had come to stay here the boiler fan broke, causing the noise. It had never happened before, and it was promptly fixed. Our heat is completely quiet and keeps the place toasty warm in the winter time.

Transit: We are just a ten-minute walk to the 3 train, the C train, and many buses. We are a short ride to Prospect Park, DUMBO, Williamsburg and many other Brooklyn Destinations and are 35 minutes to most of lower Manhattan.

Access: Our backyard has a table and chairs, charcoal grill, and firepit with firewood. Our kitchen is fully equipped whether it be for making coffee/tea and breakfast or making a full-on feast. Our kitchen includes: magic bullet, cuisinart, cast iron skillets, espresso pot, tea kettle, an array of pots, pans and cooking utensils. We have a vacuum tube bluetooth stereo, wifi throughout the apartment, a work desk with printer/scanner.

Interaction: We will be available over text or email if you have any questions.

House Rules: - We are a no-shoe house. We kindly ask you take your shoes off when you come in to the house

  • Reviewer: Charles-Edouard

    Comments: I had a geat time at this place in Brooklyn. Loved the backyard area. It was just perfect to chill and relax every night after coming back from work. Will come back for sure !

  • Reviewer: Cyndi

    Comments: A cozy apartment in a great location with a wild and wonderful garden outback. I loved the assortment of teas offered. Everything was clean and as described. Great hosts!

  • Reviewer: Sadie And Bill

    Comments: Corinne's place is charming, cozy and in a very nice location on a lovely quiet street. Our only issue was that the heater in the bedroom has a very loud fan that came on frequently during the night and kept us from having a restful sleep at night. A white noise machine was offered, but that in itself is constant noise. So if you are a light sleeper,it might not be the place for you during heating season. If you do stay, try the arepas or breakfast bowls at nearby Tinto. YUM!

    Comments: The apt was great and centrally located to our children we were visiting in Crown Heights. The weather outside was crazy cold but the apt was always invitingly warm when we returned. It was a great size for our needs, and the bed was very comfortable. Very welcoming place and hosts!! Thank you Jason & Corrine.

    Comments: Very homy and cozy. We had a very nice time in Corinne’s and Jason’s apartment. They are great hosts!

  • Reviewer: Joseph

    Comments: Corinne's place is really lovely. It has a little less light than other apartments, but it makes up for it in character, authenticity and charm. Its great value for the area and Jason and Corinne were incredibly accommodating and wonderful to communicate with. I would definitely stay there again in the future and would recommend it to anyone.
