We stayed at Jae's apartment for 6 nights and our experience with him could not have been better. He met us outside the apartment building at nearly midnight after we flew in from the West Coast. He took us on a tour of the apartment which is just as depicted in the photos on the listing. He also responded promptly to texts when we had questions. The neighborhood appears to be a residential/commercial area where we picked up some bagels, coffee and pastries and did laundry. We felt safe walking through it to and from the subway (L Train) to get to Bedford Ave or Manhattan. There always seemed to be people out and about, providing a greater sense of security. There is some street noise, but we were able to muffle it with the window-mounted air conditioners. The kitchen and bathrooms are well equipped. The skylights are wonderful, providing a sense of airy spaciousness. Finally, upon returning "home" in the evening, walking the 2 1/2 blocks from the subway and up the 2 flights of stairs, we felt as though we had reached our own private oasis. We would definitely stay there again...
