I stayed here for a month. To sum my experience up in a few lines would be tough. First off, the room is perfect for a single person or even a couple. Spacious for Brooklyn. You'll have your own bathroom and you're free to use the kitchen. The host does have a dog and she does shed. If you're allergic please be aware. It's located on the cusp of crown heights and prospect heights. It's a good mix of culture, very close to the subway (approx 30-40min into Manhattan), and tons of good eats. You might also run into some strange characters but just mind your own business, you'll be fine. It's an old building so you may see a bug here and there. Overall loved my stay and would totally book another in a heartbeat.
