The host was great and always responsive. The location is great, quick walk to Barclay and Atlantic Avenue, and plenty of restaurants and bars on 5th Ave. However, the apartment is fairly small, old and needs lots of maintenance. The primary problem is that heat cannot be controlled and it was unbearably hot the whole week I was there. The apartment also leaked from the ceiling during a raining day. Furthermore, I had to wait outside in freezing weather for over 30 minutes because the lock box froze over and there was no other way to get into the apartment other than waiting for the host to come help us. The host could not solve the problem and had to send an Uber to pick up the keys from another person and deliver them to us.
