Fine hospitality and great location made the experience wonderful. The hosts were very accommodating and responsive to special dietary needs (gluten-free, dairy free). We loved exploring this Brooklyn neighborhood. Although there were repairs taking place elsewhere in the house, the hosts were very considerate of noise and convenience issues. It felt like home!

A great stay in Brooklyn, close to subway and an easy walk to Prospect Park in a safe and tree-lined residential neighborhood. Sue and family were welcoming and gracious with spot-on suggestions. This was an excellent departure from the cookie-cutter hotel. At the time of our visit, some remodeling was going on...and we were consulted about starting times of the... More

What a charming peaceful place. We enjoyed our stay enormously. Easy access to the city from a tree lined street in a quiet Brooklyn neighborhood. Sue and Michael were fabulous. This is our new home away from home when we head to New York. Wouldn't stay anywhere else. Very highly recommended.

I had a lovely, easy,comfortable stay. It's a beautiful neighborhood, easy to get to, and easy to park. They are about to renovate the third floor bath to enlarge it. Sue was so helpful, giving me all sorts of information about services in the area. Very accommodating. I will surely return.

Ditmas Park is a wonderful diverse Brooklyn neighborhood and Rugby Gardens, with its fun, eclectic, and funky style and character, captures the vibe beautifully. I was visiting my son who was having surgery, and Sue and Michael made sure I was comfortable, comforted, and supported. The house, a beautiful Victorian, has a neighborhood feel along with close access to the... More

My Girlfriend has family near this place and we stay here every time we visit. The house is an old Victorian which was easy to find on a quiet street and parking is not a problem. It's only a 5 min walk to the subway as well as many good restaurants and shops. The subway takes roughly 1/2 hour to... More

I enjoyed 3 nights at Rugby Gardens in the Ditmas Park neighborhood of Brooklyn. It is Sue and Mike's home, rooms on the third floor converted from family use to B and B. Breakfast was nutritious and plentiful, the proprietors amiable and helpful, and the rooms comfortable. Despite the family nature of this small operation, Sue took the trouble to... More

Rugby Gardens is another excellent choice for B&Bs in Brooklyn New York. The room we stayed in was very comfortable, although up several flights of stairs so not for the weak of knees. Mike and Sue (and son and daughter) are very nice, breakfast has excellent choices of cheeses, breads, fresh fruit and abundant coffee. With the proximity of the... More
