Shelley carefully curated this place to fit the style of the area, known as the “Little Caribbean” of Brooklyn. I experienced a few hiccups with check-in and the locks, but Shelley was very accommodating and responsive. She recommended a cute little place around the corner called “Sip Unwine” and Nick and his mother and the cook were delightful. They cooked up a great red snapper for us the following evening. They have a DJ playing reggae, soca, hip hop on Friday nights. Saturday they do sip and paint. Anyway, Shelley provides everything practical from clean towels, umbrellas, and a blow dryer. You can use whatever anyone left behind in the previous stays; we used some eggs and butter. I noticed shampoos and conditioners in the shower. There were plenty of teas to select from and a tea kettle to boil water. Shelley let’s guests use her Netflix and Prime account, plus any other viewing applications available on the T.V. in the living room. We met Shelley one afternoon when we were leaving to Manhattan and I must say that she was polite and apologetic for any mishaps with the door. She’s a great host, and I highly recommend staying at this location if you need to be on this side of town. It’s about 30-40 mins to Williamsburg and Manhattan via train.
