Crystal was a wonderful host. She was very responsive and was flexible with us needing an extra hour or two in the apartment. The area is a bit deep into Brooklyn and is not a quick ride into the city. The apartment itself is ok. The couch has stains and is a bit broken, there was old hair in the showers and beds. There was spoiled milk in the fridge and in the cabinet was a storage container with mold covered sugar. We were worried about the surprise fish, but luckily found a review that says there’s an automatic feeder. The downstairs neighbors have chickens that wake up at 5:30am and are very loud until they’re fed at 7. On the positive note, the area is safe and has plenty of room for yourself and a few fellow travelers.
