We had a great stay at M's place in Brooklyn! It was very clean, relatively quiet (it is NYC), and very spacious. Also the street parking was easy. Some of the furniture seems the worse for the wear (one mattress didnt have a box spring and kept falling through the frame, the chairs seem somewhat unstable, etc.). Sparcely furnished (no extra blankets, TP, etc) Overall however, a great place for the price and would definitely stay again. Neighborhood was fine, but note that as a female (who lives in a major city myself) I would not have necessarily felt comfortable walking home alone from the subway after dark. Traveling in a group it was fine.
