I was a bit tentative to stay in an airbnb for a month, though I had no choice as I was in-between school, my first post-grad school job, and apartments. Thankfully, Kaz and his airbnb made this transition month as easy to bear as possible. Kaz was an extremely responsive host and he always answered my texts very quickly, usually within an hour or two. I used to live in Bushwick, though this specific area definitely has an even rougher feel–people new to the area should be prepared for that. But, as others have said, I also felt safe the whole time. Bushwick can be a bit noisy, though thankfully the room is not street-facing. I'm a light sleeper and was usually able to sleep through the train. Lastly, the spot is very convenient as it's only about a 5 minute walk from the M and J trains.
