As a solo female traveler, I can not recommend this listing enough. This was my first airbnb experience and it went above and beyond anything I could have ever imagined. I wanted to go to NYC to do the typical tourist thing -- and I got it, all while getting to stay in Brooklyn. The subway is incredibly easy to navigate from this location -- it takes you straight into Manhattan. Matthew and Dawn are some of the friendliest, most approachable people ever. My only recommendation is that they maybe have a guest book for fun. :)
