The location of the Airbnb is relatively close to subways so it makes it easy to get to Manhattan, Williamsburg, etc. while the area itself is not a choice one, it isn’t unsafe. Directions to locate the key to get into the apartment was not accurate and difficult to understand, so don’t expect clear directions if you stay here. The apt itself was clean, however, very very chilly and only when I inquired was I told one small space heater was available under the sink. I was told to use the stove to heat the apt, which doesn’t seem safe to me. Don’t expect creature comforts like bottled water or Kleenex. This Airbnb has only the basics.
