Michelle's house is on a quiet and safe street in Brooklyn. The rooms and shared bathrooms were immaculate; other guests were both quiet and friendly. I had a smaller room which met my needs perfectly, but for extra space and relaxation, the backyard garden area was just wonderful. The room a/c was excellent, and the room was well equipped with micro and mini-fridge. Michelle is a very warm and kind lady who proved very helpful to me in several different ways. The house is just a few blocks away from restaurants and subway stations. While parking could be a challenge, I was entirely delighted with my stay and definitely hope to return when I visit my daughter just a few blocks away.
