We stayed in the Cottage for 4 nights. It was private and very comfortable. Breakfast was fantastic every morning, and we thoroughtly enjoyed the company of Masha and David and their charming family. The neighborhood seems on an upward trend, maybe due to the efforts of caring residents such as the Hamilton-Orrs.

Great location and value. Would heartily recommend to NYC visitors who would like to retire to a slower pace during their stay.

My husband and I spent 8 nights at Sterling B&B. We really do recommend it. Our room was spacious and we had a private bathroom. The owners are very helpful. Breakfasts were delicious. the location is great- just a few blocks from subway that takes you to Manhattan in 15 minutes. Neighborhood is safe.

What you find when you step into Sterling B&B is completely unexpected—at least to me. It is exactly like a home in the city. The hosts are warm, loaded with advice and maps and menus. The breakfasts are delicious. Our room was great and the location couldn’t have been better for us. We will definitely come again.

The people at the B&B were an eclectic group from various backgrounds, worldwide exposures, and conservation to liberal persuasions. The B&B hosts had a manner about them that encouraged dialogue, so breakfast became a post-graduate senior in human interaction- enlivening and enriching!

Sterling B&B was convenient, clean and the hosts were super friendly. There is great attention to detail, and I loved the neighborhood. Subways are very close, as is the Brooklyn Museum. Sterling B&B made my NYC visit extremely pleasant. I began recommending it to other people even before I’d unpacked my bag.

My husband and I took a long weekend getaway and chose Sterling initially because you can walk to the Botanical Gardens and it is also close to subway for quick access to Manhattan. We weren't prepared for how comfortable and friendly it was. Our room was great and reminded us, even in the cold of winter, of being in sunlight Arizona. The sheets were luxury quality and the breakfasts were delicious. The atmosphere was friendly and helpful. We will definitely be returning to Sterling B&B and recommending it to friends.

We loved our stay at the Sterling Place B&B. We met interesting people, a pretty little cat who welcomed us and a personable family. It is close to major Brooklyn sites and public transportation. I loved the neighbourhood, it is packed with diversity. I will definitely stay there again.

A perfect place to stay while visiting New York City: Sterling B&B feels like an upscale version of home. We had wonderful conversations and laughter over tasty breakfasts in the dining room, and our hosts helped us with maps and guidebooks. We will not forget Sterling, and we will definitely stay here again.

My husband and I celebrated our honeymoon here and we loved our room - the cottage. It was charming. Our hosts were so warm and welcoming and helped us with guidebooks, suggestions and good conversations over breakfast. It was a memorable stay and we hope to be back for anniversaries.

Not only was the room comfortable and gracious, but our hosts were so welcoming and engaging. They handled extra needs, providing directions, restaurant suggestions, and even took in our lost luggage when the airline delivered it while we were out on the town. It was a great stay and the location, close to the Brooklyn Museum, Botanical Gardens, Prospect Park and subways, was just about perfect for us.

To B&B dot Com review: (Montreal, Quebec, Canada, 19th of May 2008). Mme Masha Hamilton and M. David Orr welcome their guests in their cosy retreat from busy NYC, a conveniently located home. My wife and I enjoyed the confort of the room, the library, the access to internet, the good -- without being submerged by unnecessary sweet food -- breakfast, the availability and sound advices of our hosts, their discretion: in one word, the soul of their home. We felt part of it. To be underlined: a most welcoming family! After having lived so far in eight countries, we do believe that this B&B ought to be considered a point of reference in any federation or association (national or international), a "point de passage et de séjour obligé" (an obligatory transit and sojourn stay). Merci (in French), dank U (in Flemish) and of course, thank you !

The Garden Cottage was a sanctuary in the city at the end of the day. The hosts were so helpful with giving us directions and advice about everything from museums to restaurants. Breakfast in the garden was perfect, and was even available when we had to leave before dawn for an early flight home. Couldn't have been better!

My husband and I were in town for a family event and found Sterling B&B to be just about perfect. Great location for us, spacious room, nice conversation with the interesting innkeepers over breakfast. I feel like we made new friends in Brooklyn at Sterling B&B.

Our room overlooked a spacious garden and you never would have guessed you were in the middle of the city. The room itself was exceptionally clean and peaceful, and the location was perfect for getting everywhere from Manhattan to Coney Island beach. We will definitely stay here again!
