Karim's apartment is a bit of a diamond in the rough. In that, the neighborhood isn't a typical Brooklyn neighborhood. The location is nice, though. It's easy to get to the train and there are some nice little cafes nearby.
The apartment is clean, comfortable (both beds and couch), and nicely decorated. We appreciated the wifi, nice television and the elevator to the 5th floor.
All-in-all a very nice stay.
