This is a good place for a short stay for convenient access to the J train and not far from restaurants, shops, and neighborhood walking. Tourists coming and going within a very residential area may not be the right fit, but if you're looking to be Brooklyn-based and close to some good stuff this is a pretty good option. It's a value - the accommodations are a little rustic/eclectic and could be a little tidier. There's good security considering the key code entrance door and room keys to lock inside and outside your room. I was busy commuting to and from work, so I didn't get a chance to check out the rest of the house (I was downstairs in room 3) but not sharing a bathroom was pretty nice lol.
