We had a really fantastic time at Krysta's flat. She ensured that everything was ready for us and that there was someone there to welcome us, even though we were a bit earlier than originally planned.

The room was very spacious, clean, comfy, and there was cupboard and shelf room for us to store our things. The bed was large and comfortable with clean and soft bed sheets. The whole flat was warm, clean and very well looked after. The kitchen looked lovely (though we never actually used it - purely because we were eating out so much). The bathroom was clean with a lovely warm shower.

We really enjoyed the neighbourhood. There are some great places to eat and drink such as Butter and Scotch, Domo Tacos, Barboncinos, Berg'n and Covenhaven. It's only a short walk to Franklin Av subway station, which we used most days to get into Manhattan or other parts of Brooklyn.

Finally, Krysta was an ideal host. Very warm and friendly, happy to chat and give advice, and happy to let you get on with you own thing. She and her housemate were very gracious in sharing their space with us, and made us feel very welcome.

I'd strongly recommend staying in Crown Heights with Krysta - we had a great time!
