My friends and I were able to stay at Kara's place for a weekend while visiting Brooklyn, and we undoubtedly enjoyed our stay. Admittedly, the environment surrounding the location of Kara's place is a bit unsettling at first. However, Kara's place is near the subway station and great local spots (which she helped point out). Kara's place itself is worth the stay. The sofa bed is surprisingly more comfortable than expected, and the layout is more spacious than expected. Kara and her husband's hospitality is also highly appreciated. She quickly communicates with you, and is located right upstairs if anything more is ever needed. If ever in Brooklyn, NY again, I would definitely reserve another stay!
