I made a last-minute reservation here so that I could attend a weekend event north of Prospect Park. With two large suitcases and a backpack, the walk from the nearest subway station to the apartment took me 13 minutes (Google Maps says it takes 14 minutes). The location is perfect for anyone visiting the Prospect Park/Park Slope area. The apartment is on the first floor in a nice residential neighborhood. If you plan to cook, as I did, just 3 minutes away walking is an active commercial street with a well-stocked (including very fresh fruits and vegetables) grocery store, and a large fruit/vegetable stand just down the street, etc. I also counted more than a half-dozen churches nearby . I was surprised that another reviewer felt unsafe. That was certainly not my experience. The apartment itself is quite lovely with a beautifully updated kitchen/dining area, fresh paint throughout, plenty of lighting and space, and nicely decorated. The price is right for an entire apartment with 3 bedrooms and 4 large beds. As the Airbnb website indicates, it costs about the same as a single room in some of the least expensive hotels in Brooklyn or Manhattan. I was on my own this time, but would stay here again visiting NYC with my wife or with my wife and friends. The subway ride to midtown Manhattan is about an hour, but for the cost, the amount of space, and the quality of the apartment make it attractive as a place for me (and friends) to stay when visiting the museums, the theater, etc in Manhattan.
