This Airbnb apartment is in a great location in Brooklyn. It’s on the first block off Flatbush Ave, the neighborhood’s major thoroughfare. The walk to the subway station is short and easy. From there it’s easy to travel into downtown Brooklyn and to take the Q train into any part of Manhattan. There are too many great, affordable restaurants along Flatbush Avenue in either direction from this apartment. The neighborhood’s makeup is heavily Caribbean, so the food, the accents you overhear, and the smiles all feel fun and welcoming.
It wasn’t too hard to find street parking, so I parked at no cost – no small thing when talking about NYC lodging! Plus, because the apartment is just a little further out than many people look, it has a lower nightly price that makes it a total steal.
For being a garden apartment, it gets great light, even in winter. That’s largely because the buildings on the block are all only three stories, so they don’t block the sun. There are two large windows in the front and in the rear of the apartment.
The apartment includes a comfortable couch and chair, plenty of places to sit to eat or work, a kitchen that is in great shape and has even more than I needed during my 5-night stay.
The whole place was meticulously clean when I arrived late at night, and the self-check-in process was simple and smooth. There were more than enough clean towels, and everything in the bathroom was up to date and in great condition.
Fraulein’s communication before and during my stay was prompt and very helpful. She is an experienced host who knows how to provide a great stay while remaining unobtrusive.
10 out of 10, would absolutely stay again.
