This was our most beautiful Airbnb rental yet. Andre's apartment could be on the cover of a magazine! It is small, but so well-designed that we did not feel cramped during our three day stay. Everything was spotless when we arrived, and we received assistance getting our luggage up the one (somewhat long) flight of stairs. Note: these wonderful old houses have high ceilings, which accounts for the long flight of stairs and the roomy feeling, despite the small size of the apartment. There is a lovely terrace that looks out from the front of the house to a (one-way) street that is fairly quiet. There are stores and casual places to eat about a block away, the the subway was an easy four block walk. Unfortunately for us, we had lots of rain. Andre said he would try to have better weather for us next time we visit! The only drawback - and this is true of almost everywhere in Brooklyn - was the parking. You have to be prepared to move your car every other day or so while the streets are cleaned. But, you can learn to work the system! I grew up in Brooklyn (a long time ago), but my husband and I have always stayed in Manhattan when we visit "The City," because my daughter has lived there since her college days in the nineties. But with the easy subway access, we are inclined to stay in Brooklyn again - at Andre's apartment, if possible. I hope this has been helpful.
