Marilyn is a great host and her place is wonderful. The room is spacious and the entire space was always very clean. I love the way she added a refrigerator in the room for easy use. She offered delicious food on two occasions and as a foodie it was so appreciated! Laundry in the basement was a definite plus. I would highly recommend Marylin's place for anyone looking for a great place to stay in Brooklyn with easy train access to Manhattan.
