We do not recommend you stay at "Anthony's Cool Loft," certainly not during the warmer months. Do you wonder why there are no photos of the house itself or neighbourhood? Because the house is run down, leaning sharply to one side, and not well cared for. When we turned on the kitchen light, it startled a large rodent living in the attic, who scurried across the ceiling and frightened our children. We arrived on a humid evening and took a short walk to allow the AC to cool the tiny, cramped space and discovered one block away is Brooklyn's largest housing projects, the Red Hook Houses. There was a visible and active police presence including barricades, uniformed officers and continuous flashing lights. Anthony assured me over the telephone his place was suitable for my partner and two young children, but we did not feel safe or comfortable and left after the first of three nights' rental to stay in a hotel. The interior of the apartment itself is clean with new linens and furniture. It is awkward that the apartment's two twin beds are in one tiny bedroom facing each other and only a narrow passage between them. In order to use the toilet, you must sit with your legs touching the pipes beneath the sink. The AC works but is loud, and therefore helps drown out the street noise. The place is affordable, but you get what you pay for.
