The room is indeed huge and warm. Like some of the other reviewers mentioned its almost like having your own studio. I used the space for work and sleeping and it was great for both. The bed is really comfy, there's tons of closet space and the room was airy and clean.
The location is ideal being so close to the B/Q (2 mins walk!) and there's loads of buses on nearby Ocean and Church. There's some excellent places to eat nearby and people in this nabe are friendly (for NYC!).
The only thing that took getting used to was the classic NYC apartment radiators. They make a clanking and hissing sound when they come on (as they do in my apt). I did start to get used to it. Oh, and there's an awesome cat called Memphis who will be happy to make friends.
Zhenya could not have been more accommodating and flexible. He really respects your space, but is always happy to help if you need anything.
I'd recommend this place as a creative bolthole whether you live in NYC or further afield. Its an ideal spot to explore Brooklyn from if you're from out-of-town.
I'm going to miss this place. Zhenya is a warm, friendly, helpful and respectful host. Thanks Z!
