The listing description and pictures and accurate, which was important to me as I'm still 'green' on all things airbnb. I didnt get to meet the host in person, but she was very responsive and helpful! The key pickup coordination was no sweat.

Its a basic, no frills accommodation and the location was very convenient to the D train and easy to get around the City. I gotta say it was fairly quiet and I felt safe walking home at night. The neighborhood is residential, and if you wanted to find a pub for a beer after say 9pm, chances are you wont (and thats ok by me). The wifi was strong and speedy. I didnt cook, but used the microwave once - the space was perfect for my needs of needing an affordable place to sleep at night while I spent my waking hours exploring. Being end of summer and warmer tempertures, I loved having windows to open and a fan to use. I'll add that I am terrified of bedbugs, and of course checked thoroughly and found no concerns. Great stay!! thank you! (I would actually rate 4.5 stars :)
