Overall, we were quite pleased with our stay in Valentin's Brooklyn loft. The location is exceptional, the space is charming and very functional, and overall it's a perfect home base for a Brooklyn adventure. The one watch-out is noise. The loft is located right next door to a club (Velvet Brooklyn), and though Valentin reports that the club doesn't host shows frequently—and indeed for two of the three nights we stayed there it was very quiet and peaceful—the third night was insanely loud, with the sound of dance music and people screaming coming through the wall until 2am. Check the Velvet schedule before booking, I guess.
