My family and I really enjoyed staying in Jeff's place. The rooms were bigger than we expected (especially for NYC!) and he was very patient in accommodating our schedule, which changed a couple of times. He was a great host -- accessible and helpful, without being pushy -- and his house has a ton of character.
We used to live in the neighborhood, Ditmas Park, and while it's not the most central for some tourist activities, it's a green and quiet refuge that's still an easy subway or car ride away from tons to do. (Not to mention a growing number of cool restaurants and bars within walking distance in the neighborhood. )
Finally, while it is possible to find on-street parking in the area, being able to use Jeff's driveway for a very fair additional fee was a huge help, and made our stay a lot more relaxing. We would definitely stay there again!
