Rebekah was very welcoming and a great host. Neighbourhood isn't as "trendy" as other Brooklyn spots like Williamsburg, so if you're looking for well curated thrift shops, a strong cup of Americano or a vegan cupcake, you'll have to venture to another 'hood. There is a grocery store very close with lots of fresh produce and great selection of prepackaged food. Felt safe and comfortable and would definitely stay again. We visited as a group of four and the apartment offered lots of space and natural light (it's even more charming in person than in photos). The apartment was very clean and not cluttered (like some lived-in rentals), but had all the essentials needed for a comfortable stay. I've used Airbnb several times across the globe and found Rebekah to be one of the best hosts I've encountered. She's lovely; quick to respond, very helpful and genuinely concerned about the quality and safety of her guests' trip. Getting across the river to Manhattan is a breeze from this location, too. It's perfect for a family or group who wanted to explore Brooklyn (and avoid the crowds) but also wants to be close to the classic landmarks of Manhattan.
