LA MAISON DES SIRENES 1, Bohemian and charm,ing 20mn away from city.

On the third floor of a hundred years old brownstone, la Maison des Sirenes is perfect for anybody appreciating style and comfort. Affordable but not 'cheap', La Maison des Sirenes is well dressed!!! The apartment was decorated with taste and I meticulously picked every single of furnitures myself. This is the first apartment I ever rented as a vacation rental(August 2007).

It is located on one of the most coveted block of Bedstuy(tree lined). It features a master bedroom,an antique clawfoot bathroom, fully equipped Tuscan style kitchen,dining room,living room and an amazing bamboo lined deck with table,umbrella and seats .Perfect for barbecue in summer,sun bathing brunches on weekends or simply relaxing.
Most importantly the apartment is a few stations away from Manhattan. Keep in mind this is not a newly renovated apartment. It is very cosy and shows signs of age. It is a home and people Love it!
NYC OCCUPANCY TAXES ARE NOT INCLUDED AND ARE DUE UPON ARRIVAL IN CASH. Required by the city on less than 180 days rentals,they are 5.875% +$2/night. As of 03/01/2015 the state of NY requires lodging establishments to charge the state and sales tax. It represents 8.875%

Bedstuy used to be known for its motto 'do or die' . Not anymore!!!! Now it is best known for its incredibly beautiful Brownstone. It was fearures recently in the Time Out magazine as ' one of the best ' of NYC. The strong community and abundant beautiful brownstone townhouses contribute to its growth and charm. New cafes,restaurants,bakeries ,boutique ,galleries nd wine bars are sprouting everywhere receiving much attention by Zagat, time out,NY magazines and blogs. A diverse mix of students,hipsters,artists,crative professionals,architects and attorneys continue to move to the neighbourhood.
The area is serviced well by the A and C train with commute times 15 mn to lower manhattan and 30 mn to midtown.(times square).

Bedstuy was home to famous artists such as Notorious BIG,Lil Kim,Mos Def,Chris rock,,poet June Jordan and activist Hattie Carthan. Bedstuy streets are often represented in media : Spike lee movies, MIA music video.....
There is a strong sense of pride being part of Bedstuy and being its pioneers.

The apartment is located on the second floor, and it was decorated true to the bohemian style. It was a perfect place for a girls trip with my friend and our daughters. Host is very helpful and responsive, the area is nice with corner stores and restaurants close by. It wasn’t too bad to find parking, but know you have to change sides of the street for street cleaning. We took advantage of the kitchen and everything worked well. Beautiful large windows with tons of natural light.

Beautiful cozy apartment in a great neighborhood.

Nathalie's apartment is a gem! It is a charming, light-filled place in a beautiful old brownstone, complete with a well equipped kitchen and a private back patio. It had plenty of room for our family of four. It is well maintained, and on a quiet street in a lovely neighbourhood, with good restaurants and shops easily accessible. The subway is a quick 8-minute walk away, and gets you to lower Manhattan in 20 minutes. We are already talking about coming back to stay here again. Thanks Nathalie!

Charming stay in Brooklyn

I was debating between staying in a hotel or short-term rental and am so glad I booked this spot. If you are looking for a local’s experience of New York, this is the place! I enjoyed getting to know the neighborhood and had easy access to the subway to get into Manhattan. The host was very friendly and had great recommendations. I would consider booking here again the next time I visit New York.

A great holiday

We stayed in the apartment for 10 days and it was a great holiday. The instructions for self-check-in were perfect and Nathalie reacted immidiately whenever we had a question. She also arranged our transport back to the airport, thanks a lot for this. The location is excellent, it is less than 10 minutes walk to the subway station of the C-line which takes you to Manhattan in about 20 mins. The neighborhood is great and we always felt safe, even when returning to the apartment late night. There are also some nice bars and restaurants in the area, we liked the "Cocktail Bedstuy Bar" just around the corner very much. Our visits to Manhattan were wonderful, lots to see and to do, especially the walk across Brooklyn Bridge towards Manhattan.
