This place is a very, very good value. There is sufficient space. And the quiet location on this tree-lined street is in fact perfect, and close to subway. We went in/out of The City many times with ease. Keep in mind, this is a basement unit...it has the feel of a basement unit. But, it was just fine. No issues with drafts, dampness or noise. Bring comfy house slippers for the cold cement floor and it will be just fine. Walks to/from subway in the dark may seem daunting if you are not a city person...but we two old ladies had no problem. Neighborhood people were neighborly indeed. We asked directions of many, and 90% were eager to help. Wifi worked perfectly. This place fit our pictures of a quaint Brooklyn neighborhood.
