Devon's apartment in Brooklyn was exactly as described and as reviewed by others, so I feel I was well prepared for knowing what my stay would be like. Devon responded promptly for arrangements and I felt welcomed by her roommate who was very friendly and accommodating during my stay. It was handy to have use of the kitchen/refrigerator for meals I chose to eat there and the market a few blocks away especially handy for that too. Being from a quiet home, I was glad another reviewer suggested bringing earplugs -- beneficial if not used to city noises drifting up from the busy street below, if you have the front room as I did. The apartment very clean and bright, and the bed was so comfortable!
