I've been visiting friends in Bed-Stuy for the past seven years. Every year the neighborhood gets better. There are new bars (loved Casablanca), restaurants, and coffee shops popping up each time I visit, but the friendly neighborhood vibe is still there. It's good to see a place like Saraghina thriving after being there 5+ years Noted: Bed-Stuy is not Park Slope (thank goodness). Kris was a great host and was easy to coordinate with. Having a lock box outside made arriving later then expected very easy. The apt was just like it was pictured and very clean.
