We are two couples and stayed one week in Rachels apartment. It's is very spacious and perfectly equipped with everything you need. The two bathrooms were useful as we wanted to leave the apartment early in the morning to get as soon as possible to Manhattan. Rachel responded quickly and received us personally and gave us useful tipps. But self-checkin isn't a problem as well!
The neighborhood is fine but i wouldn't walk alone after midnight. We prefered to take the bus (it's included in your MetroCard): From 'Ralph Av' Subway Station you can take the Bus 47 to 'Ralph Av/Bergen St'.
We would definitely recommend to anybody!
