I stayed in Suzette's apartment for 5 days for my first trip to New York and to meet up with my son. As the other reviews have said it is very convenient for the subway to Manhattan (20-40 mins and currently a reduced service on the L line at weekends but M line is fine then) and for the supermarket and we found some great restaurants all within walking distance in Irving Avenue and nearby. The bedroom is light and airy with lots of space and a very comfy bed, a small bathroom with lots of hot water for the shower/bath, and a well equipped kitchen, my son (27) was on the futon in the sitting room which was fine for him. The apartment was very clean and Suzette was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions before arrival. The area around the subway is colourful with a Latin American vibe. We really enjoyed staying in Bushwick and in Suzette's apartment and recommend it.
