My partner and I stayed with our 2 dogs.
Host:
The host is the most responsive and communicative I’ve ever had at an Airbnb. I felt that we were his top priority and he would do whatever he could to handle any of our questions or concerns. This is the MOST important thing with a host, most other issues can be remedied.
Apartment:
This is a typical Brooklyn apartment, and has the bare basics necessary, no frills. Towels and a relatively comfy bed. Pots, pans, a French press. Very nice gas stove/oven, and a small dishwasher that works great.
There is no microwave or toaster.
There is one window AC unit.
The bathroom is very very small.
The apartment was very clean, but unfortunately has a roach problem. The host immediately sent an exterminator, but often times these issues can’t be helped and it seems to be ongoing.
Location:
The apartment is in a Hasidic neighborhood which is great if you’re someone who likes to keep to themselves lol. Very very safe, decent parking for BK (2x street cleaning though), relatively quiet and boring.
A few minutes walk away are restaurants, and shopping, and a more exciting vibe. There is also a waterfront courtyard with a beautiful view of the city a few blocks away, and two nice playgrounds on the same block as the apartment.
