Hi, 4 of us from Cape Town South Africa stayed at Renee's place from the 29/08 to the 04/09/14. We found the place to be exactly as it is described on Airbnd. It was clean and spacious and comfortably fitted all 4 of us! There were 1 or 2 things we required but this was seen to by Renee. The area was very interesting and the road the house is in is very pretty. There was a lot of noise over the weekend (labour day weekend), music and people staying upstairs coming and going throughout the night. Due to the wooden floor boards the noise travels. While we were woken up the first night we eventually got used to it after that. We were on holiday so just dealt with it. The subway was about 13 mins walk each day. We felt safe walking about at night (went to a Yankee game one evening and got back quite late). People were very friendly and Brooklyn is a very interesting suburb. It was our first trip to the USA and we enjoyed our time there. Renee is very friendly and helpful.
