I stayed at John’s place for 2 weeks and I fully recommend it. It was very clean and John was a friendly, respectful host. The neighborhood is very safe, with a family-oriented vibe. In close proximity there are grocery stores as well as lots of restaurants and bars. Right across the street you might have the best sandwiches in Brooklyn. It is also well-connected to other areas in Brooklyn and Manhattan with public transportation. Laundromat is basically right next to the airbnb. Just a very nice and convenient experience overall.
