If gentrification is an issue that matters to you, I would avoid this place and all other AirBNBs in Bed-Stuy. Residents there are already suffering from displacement and gentrification, and running an AirBNB of this size in the neighborhood takes an entire 8 housing units off the market for the benefit of no one but tourists. Normally I would do research into an area before booking a place there, but we had friends nearby and were in a rush to find a place. Definitely my fault, but at least I can warn others who have similar opinions.
