We checked in quite late on our first night, so Adrienne stopped by the next day to sit and chat with us about the space and the neighborhood. As she lives on the first floor, it is rather easy to get in touch with her as well.
We did have a small leak from the kitchen sink, but, as an indication of her attentiveness, once we alerted Adrienne, she came right over to look at it with a plumber. They patched it to stop the leak, and returned a few days later to do the full changing of pipes and whatnot.
The apartment is the top (third) floor of a classic Brooklyn townhouse. The townhouse is in need of a few renovations, but these appear to be on hold while the construction next door is being completed. There is a major new development going on right next door. We were never bothered by any noise during our 5-week stay though. It does mean that Adrienne's place is under protective scaffolding for the time being. This won't block the view from the street-side window, but it will limit the typical enjoyment you might get from sitting on the stoop and people watching.
