Crown heights is a great location if you like to be near transportation but also see plenty of trees. Lo’s place is worth the $ considering how affordable. And a good spot for a short trip, if you’ll be out often. My partner and I do like to stay in occasionally to relax on vacation, and we found eating meals to be difficult without a kitchen or coffee table to sit in front of / around. The building itself is rough but we didn’t have any specific trouble. The 4th floor walk up is something you definitely need to be OK with in advance, which we were. A lack of air conditioning makes for a warm apartment here, but the large windows help. ( I was excited reading prior reviews that mentioned a cat but I assume he’s since moved out?) There’s a couple issues with the bathroom that remind you why you’re getting such a good deal (hard water pressure, no shampoo as described, not a big problem but I would have packed my own if I knew. The leaking from the toilet wasn’t a great smell to deal with, either.) Our short two day stay wasn’t dampened by the situation, so I do have to give 4 stars for a quality, safe place to stay. Thanks Lo!
