The appartment was not very clean, especially the kitchen (the fridge was dirty, the microwave greasy, the cupboard not clean). There are stains on the walls. The soil had been mopped but with something greasy, and it was slippery. We ate most of the time outside but wanted sometimes to have a meal inside but there were very few kitchen ustensils. Last, we had an infestation by ants in the kitchen. I alerted Dora, who gave us the day after a pesticide, which meant that we had to do the job ourselves … I mentioned to Dora the lack of cleanliness of the fridge, microwave, the only 2 chairs while we were 3, which she qualified as “small things”. Cleanliness is a must, not a nice-to-have. Especially as we’ve been there for 2 weeks. Otherwise, plenty of bed linen and towels, but no empty drawer for our lingerie, only a closet. Fortunately, we loved Brooklyn, the environment was really great (lots of shops, restaurants, caffees..), the subway is nearby and very convenient. So it’s a go for Brooklyn but find another apartment!
