Pre-arrival-communication: Eric answered on my questions right away and could clarify my "problems". Upon arrival, he gave fruitful hints how to come to the apartment.

Arrival: Eric welcomed us directly on the street where - on this day - a local neighborhood party happened and he introduced us to his neighbors. This made us feel very comfortable for the upcoming days since we were not familiar with this area of NY. Afterwards, he showed us the apartment which was very nice. He also put a focus on details like how to use the shower etc.

Apartment/neighborhood: The apartment is really nice and - especially - nice decorated. Eric put a lot of effort into making this place a feel-like-home place for us. In addition, the apartment was very clean, breakfast was available in the kitchen and maps of NY were also available.

The apartment is a 10 minuted walk away from J train and in a quiet and - in our view - safe place of Brooklyn.

Leaving: Everything was fine and to our convenience.
