Jim's place was great! I was visiting family in Brooklyn over New Year's eve and this was the perfect location. The apartment is super clean, spacious, and perfectly located if you're going to be exploring Brooklyn. There's a grocery store and a subway station literally around the corner and tons of restaurants nearby.
Since it was wintertime, we didn't really use the balcony that much. But it's really nice and you get a good view of the tree-lined street from there.
