Alicia's place is awesome and fit our needs perfectly! I also loved how it was reasonably close to the subway and Prospect Park. The area is safe. While a residential area, there are shops and restaurants near by too. Alicia is thoughtful and was helpful throughout our stay. Her neighbors are also really friendly and welcomed us to the neighborhood. If you have a car, there is ample parking on the street. We totally recommend Alicia's place.
