House on Henry (3rd FLR Suite)

Tastefully rennovated apartment in ancient building. Comfortable sleeping experience. Well equipped kitchen. Very quiet--especially considering proximity to BQE (highway). Terrific neighborhood for hipsters /artists/ young families

The House on Henry was everything the pictures indicated. Cute decorations, comfortable amenities - my mother and I felt right at home for our 5 night stay. We never got to meet Annette, but she was very helpful by phone for any questions that we had. I know she would have been available if we had any problems. I live in the area, and my mom and I would definitely consider House on Henry for her next visit.

Very nice place, very clean, and set up as a BNB so no clutter whatsoever. I'd say perfect for a couple and thier kid(s). A little far from the subway, but Carroll Gardens is a great Brooklyn hood, especially in the warmer seasons. The BQE overpass is a half-block away, so not as quiet as Carroll Gardens should be, especially once the windows are opened, so that I guess is the main drawback. A+ in all the categories, aside from location, which I'd say is a B-; but quite frankly I think the location issue fairly handled by the correct price.

As part of our wedding week in Brooklyn, we decided to rent an apartment nearby. We found Annette's apartment to be very cute and well decorated. Perfectly comfortable. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was well appointed. The apartment was immaculate upon arrival. Would recommend! Annette is very responsive to help whilst you stay in her place Thanks to Annette!

Great & beautiful space, love the location, everything was perfect.

Great apartment, great neighborhood. Friendly and helpful host. We actually stayed in the 2nd floor unit in this building that Annette thoughtfully moved us to because she said it was more child-friendly (we travel with a 1 and 3 year old). We did a lot of cooking in the kitchen. The second bedroom was a little cold on the colder nights, but the apartment was well stocked with blankets to keep us warm. Washer and dryer in the apartment was a huge plus. We would definitely book here again.

Such a gorgeous, well-appointed space, and supremely accommodating check-in/-out process. Just great.

The House on Henry was just as the pictures showed. Very clean and comfortable. Annette was very kind to accomodate our late arrival. The only thing that could have made it better was if it was just a little closer to the subway. I would definitely recomend this apartment.

This apartment was comfortable and convenient--especially if you already know the area a little bit. The subway is only 4 short blocks away and two of Brooklyn's best restaurants, Frankies and Prime Meats, are around the corner as well. Annette told us she was around the corner if we needed anything, but we didn't--everything was nicely appointed and in place. Since I was travelling with my small daughter, I moved some of the decorations around to avoid breaking them, but the design, etc, of the place was really charming. Thanks Annette!

We had a great time at House on Henry. Annette is a great host. She met us at the apartment and showed us everything we needed to know about the apartment and gave us some great recommendations for places to eat. The apartment is in wonderful Carroll Gardens - and very close to great places to eat like Buttermilk Channel and Seersucker. It's not too far to walk to the subway either - and the F line takes you to nearly every place you need to go! It's a very pleasant walk up to Park Slope and into Prospect Park. The apartment itself is very clean and comfortable and tastefully decorated. I highly recommend this apartment. We will be sure to look up Annette again when we next come to NYC to see if she has a vacancy.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the "Sunset Retreat". Annette's Mom, Haydee, was more than sweet and welcoming. The apartment was a short walk to the subway--N or R--which allowed us quick access to anywhere we wanted to go. The apartment was clean with tons of storage space to unpack. The kitchen was nicely stocked allowing us to prepare our own meals if/when we wanted. The mattress was extremely comfortable which was a major plus after long days exploring the city. We will definitely recommend to friends and hope for a vacancy when we return.

This garden level apt was even better than pictured. The sunroom and garden are an absolute delight.Lots of palnts and outdoor seating for a lovely get together. The host was immediately responsive for any questions, Just the perfect home with the perfect hosts This 18th c apt is a true gem in Brooklyn.

The plus side of this accommodation is that there is a reasonable amount of space. The kitchen and dining area are pretty good. It is also close enough to the subway. The down side is that it is stuffy, hot, noisy and overdecorated and hence somewhat claustrophobic. Can't imagine it in summer as it was so hot in mid-May. And it's facing the BQE. Also four o'clock is a very late check in time and no effort was made to allow us to leave bags earlier.

Beautiful, spacious apartment that is two blocks from some of the best restaurants in Brooklyn: Prime Meats, Frankie's, Black Gold and Buttermilk Channel. Everything from the communication, to the check-in and cleanliness of the apartment was perfect.

I really liked this place. Carlo and Annette employed care and love, and a fine aesthetic eye makes this place feel genuine and homey. Some of the comments from previous visitors suggest they couldn't appreciate the atmosphere. If you like the pictures, which give an accurate impression of the place, then you will enjoy it. If an "antique" refrigerator irritates you, then this may not be your kind of place.

great place, great neighborhood! would definitely stay here again (and i hope to!)

Great place to stay & see NYC + Brooklyn! Haydee was extremely nice and made it a homely & comfortable place to stay in for 4 nights. Clean, simple, & bright, it was a great place to come back to each night after a long day of exploring the city. It has pretty close [walkable] access to the 53rd Street Subway station (Brooklyn) & we felt safe walking at night as well. Thanks Haydee & Annette for a wonderful stay at your place! This is my first experience with AirBnB, and would definitely recommend it & will be using this again! :)

Everything as described. Nice apartment in vibrant area and great host.

We had a very pleasant stay at 11. street, we stayed for three weeks. The apartment looks good, as in the pictures. The street and the neigbourhood is quiet. Carlo was helpful and friendly when we asked, otherwise we had our privacy. The back garden was a relaxing place to be in, even better I guess in the summer.

While a bit further from Manhattan than we normally stay, this place was worth the extra distance. A fantastic apartment with an a wonderful and helpful host who really makes you feel at home (away from home). Highly recommended for people who want to experience more of Brooklyn.

Annette is a great person! We stayed there several times on biz trips to NY and she made us feel totally at home. Awesome energy and genuine good spirit. Her place in NY is incredible, a total home away from home. We can't wait to go back.
