The room is in a house located in an apartment-heavy neighborhood. The place was extremely clean and everything was working perfectly. I especially appreciated the quiet a/c units in the room as the weather was hot. The host was able to answer questions quickly and was able to explain things when I asked. The only downside was that the train sounds can tend to be too much (hence the earplugs provided), and the fact that loud music was being played in the neighborhood until late hours. This isn't something the host can control and Brooklyn isn't somewhere you visit for peace and quiet, but location is also a factor for any type of hotel review so I factored that in as well. Overall I would stay again if I were to be visiting the same area.
