Although I am grateful my friends and I were given the opportunity to stay in Brooklyn, I was a little disappointed with the experience. As soon as I entered the apartment, I could tell the pictures had been modified to portray a more “modern” look to the establishment by means of lighting and professional camera. Some items had been taken away as the apartment was a little bare. In addition, it was apparent the sheets had not been changed in a while as the odor was quite overwhelming. The couch had been displayed on the website as a bed only to attract potential guests. The microwave in the kitchen did not warm the food and the bathroom was quite small. The host had not disclosed that she had another roommate living there so that doubled the traffic throughout the house. Jelena was specific that we should lock the doors at all times; unfortunately when we came back from the city the main door was not locked therefore putting us in danger of having our belongings taken. On the website she was specific that noise travels which is true however she had music on the first couple of minutes of our arrival. To make matters worse, the roommate told us to keep it down when we had music on as it disturbed her sleep. Overall, Jelena had a friendly attitude, I’d hate to be submitting a displeasing review but I must be honest and input my experience.
