I stayed at Jasmin's place in Crown Heights for about a week and a half. Let's start with the good stuff: the minimalist design works well, the building and apartment are very chic. The rooftop is quite nice in the morning with plenty of seating. The proximity to the 2 train is very convenient and having Prospect Park right there is lovely for a morning run or afternoon walk. The bed is very comfy and I slept well!
Jasmin was very responsive when I had questions as well, always a good sign!
Here's the stuff that can be easily fixed (and Jasmin says she's already doing some of these): the living room is _too_ minimalist, there needs to be a side table to set your beverage on or something. The kitchen is also pretty minimal - it has what you need (a good pot and pan, glasses, mugs, plates, flatware), but not much else in terms of appliances (like a toaster or kettle). I'm also very sensitive to light, and the bedroom gets pretty bright in the morning, making it difficult to sleep in; some black out curtains would really help. Lastly, a few extra amenities in the bathroom would be nice, like shampoo and bath soap (although I always bring my own things).
Okay, lastly, something that the host can't do much about: the door to the apartment is pretty thin, and so you can hear every word of every conversation in the hallway (which isn't that often). I was there over labor day weekend (and West Indian parade day), and so there were some parties which were a bit loud, but not too late, thankfully.
Overall, this was a good stay!
