Earlene’s place is conveniently located in a friendly neighborhood, where people said hello to us on the sidewalk in the mornings. We felt safe walking around at night. Coffee shops, pharmacies, grocery stores, and lots of eateries are within a few blocks. The metro was about 6 blocks away - an easy walk. The host was very prompt and hospitable with her communications. This is an older property so don’t expect the freshness that comes with a newer build. That said, it was clean and neat. We had five people in our group, and it was cramped for all of us to sit in the living room area. I recommend this location for a comfortable place to sleep while you enjoy the Brooklyn and NYC area.
