We stayed 7 days. The room was comfortable and clean. A small shop for water etc. is only a 1 minute walk away. We met the host once. She was very nice and asked if we needed anything. The train station to manhattan is about 15 minutes away (ticket for train for 7 days 35$) so I would say the accommodation is perfect to visit manhattan/Brooklyn etc. The neighborhood is very interesting you can see/meet a lot of difference cultures. For people from Germany it can be a little bit strange at night but most neighborhoods have this aura in the USA. Overall we liked to stay there and recommend this room.
