Before anything else, we’d like to say that the apartment was beautiful, really well done and that Bellamy was quick to respond to our enquires. We appreciated the ‘basics/essentials' in the kitchen and bathroom and the suggestion of Saraghina restaurant, which was great. As we had a night flight home we were extremely grateful for the ‘luggage drop-off’ as there would be nowhere to leave anything in this neighbourhood. However, that said, we didn’t feel that this apartment is quite everything it claims to be. We don’t understand the description ‘sleeps 4 comfortably’ and the ‘sleeping arrangements’ under ‘Bed 1 and Bed 2’. The bedroom has one double bed (not King-size). In the living room the back of the blue sofa (seen in the picture) folds down flat (single) but has ridges in it, not at all comfortable for sleeping. There is a single mattress which you will have to roll out and make up then put away each day, charged at extra cost. If there were a couple more pans you could cook anything on the large hob and oven, but there are only 2 chairs and a small, wall facing, kitchen bar for eating off. The TV only had Netflix, so we couldn’t get the news and weather and the Wi-Fi dropped in and out so we couldn’t always look things up. As the host abides by Airbnb’s suggestion to only communicate via the Airbnb portal it could be difficult if you need to contact her and, if you are an overseas guest, without incurring a huge phone bill for using mobile data abroad. We walked to Myrtle Avenue station which took about 15 minutes. We didn’t feel threatened but the streets did feel run down and untidy and a couple of NYPD officers did tell us that this isn’t a particularly safe neighbourhood and that we shouldn’t walk around or go out at night. We also found out that we were bordering on Bed-Sty and the Marcy Projects. Whilst obviously on the map, it is not made clear that this is not the most illustrious neighbourhood which a visitor wouldn’t necessarily know about it until they actually got there. We got Ubers, but you still may need to walk to the store for food. We are not precious, have travelled the world and have previously lived in New York. We wanted a different ‘New York (Brooklyn) experience’ but this is a different environment and a neighbourhood that not everyone might feel safe or comfortable in. This may not be for everyone and it wouldn’t be fair to book and pay for something which, when you get there, is not quite as expected. Our daughter had been living in an AirBnB about 20 minutes away, near Myrtle Ave Station and when she showed the location of this apartment to her two hosts,w ho have both lived and worked in Brooklyn for 10+ years they were shocked and slightly concerned. While nothing untoward happened during our stay, we wouldn't...
