The place looks just like the pictures, and it’s nestled in a neat part of Brooklyn. And, there’s plenty of parking, which was nice.
When I requested to book with Marjorie, she was extremely responsive and helpful, and even when I had to arrive an hour late, she was accommodating, even though she had to personally check me in and might have had to delay her sleep. That was very nice of her.
During the check-in process, she seemed reserved and trepidatious; I would have appreciated her being more welcoming, but it was fine.
The only really cons I say were the following: the bed itself is more like a futon than a bed, and it’s a little on the hard side. And, secondly - shortly after checked in, I sent her a quick message (since she was in her bedroom and I didn’t want to disturb) to see if I could get some water. She asked me to use the mug in the bathroom vanity, which was extremely strange. The post for this Airbnb lists utensils, so technically, I should have had access to the glasses in the kitchen.
It was late, and she was in bed, so I didn’t want to argue, especially over text. So, I tried using the mug in the bathroom, but it just smelled like soap since there was a lot of soap next to it. And, I looked at it, and it didn’t even seem clean.
Lastly, since you are not provided a key or a code, you are forced to stay in after 10 PM (11 PM in my case since I checked in late). It didn’t affect me because I was only there for a night and wasn’t planning on going back out. But, for others, it may be an issue, and I think it should be listed on the post, so people can gauge for themselves.
