Malik's place is an absolute gem. it's in a great neighborhood, very private and quiet. we found street parking very close easily and everything was as described. this placeis so close to so many restaurants and subway stops. travel between Brooklyn and Manhattan was super easy. everything is spotless. we didn'tsee the host but he was so friendly in messages and we had a great amount of space. he provides hangers for the closet which was so good. shower is fantastic and everything smells really good, towels and the space itself. we had no issues. I found the bed super comfortable. we slept really well and found the neighborhood to be quieter than people described? we would happily stay here again it was a steal especially for new york in december.
