Doug's place is very nice, spotlessly clean and (given that there are a number of rooms and a fair few people seem to come through!) very well-organised. Doug made me feel welcome, was very helpful in terms of offering advice on the area, and was around to ask questions. The location could hardly be better, in the middle of Fort Greene and next to lots of transport.

The basement room itself is pretty tight (the photograph doesn't lie, not much more than bed and bookcases), and there isn't really a social/communal area in the house or much room to hang out, but I was travelling on my own and out a lot, so it was perfect for my needs. No AC or windows, but there is a ceiling fan.

In short, a very nice place, conveniently located and I'd definitely consider staying again.
