This was my very first time visiting New York and I ended up booking Charlene’s place because I wanted to save money. I gotta say, I was a little nervous before my trip, as I’ve read on google that it is a dangerous neighborhood..... BUT LET ME TELL YOU, GOOGLE IS WRONG! I never felt unsafe or nervous in this neighborhood and we got back really late most nights. Charlene’s neighborhood was one of my favorite places to be. So many cultures in Brooklyn to experience. It was much quieter than Manhattan and really easy to navigate. The train ride into the city wasn’t bad at all! Charlene’s place is exactly what you need! Charlene is a lovely host and made sure to check in on us! I plan to recommend Charlene’s place to anyone that I know planning a trip to New York!
