I'm originally from NYC and I was in town with my wife to visit family. This was exactly what we were looking for and at a good value. The location is unbeatable: It is ~7-8 mins from Bedford Ave and Marcy Av train stations, ~5 mins from Domino Park, and seconds away from bars and restaurants. The space is no frills, as advertised, and is perfect for dropping off bags and sleeping. Marc was a great host. He is extremely responsive, accomodating, and communicative whilst being hands off. Two cautions (this never affected us but it's an observation) : 1) People with trouble climbing stairs and/or are claustrophobic may have an issue walking up a few flights to the apartment on the 3rd level. 2) Light sleepers on weekends*may* be disturbed by the music from the bar on 1st floor.
