I stayed at Monzur’s apartment for a few nights. Overall, it was a mixed bag: the furniture was new, but the apartment itself seemed in need of upkeep, with cobwebs under kitchen cabinets and a toilet tank that kept breaking. The stairwell smelled of smoke so strongly that you could feel it in the apartment. The apartment is conveniently close to the subway, and the area has a lovely Caribbean vibe, with some nice eateries and a sense of community. If you are looking for a quiet area, you may find the partying on the weekend to be a little too much, like we did. But it’s a great spot if you are looking for easy access to other Brooklyn locations.
