This listing is just as described, the room is spacious and well lit since it's at the front of the house. The mini fridge/tv/coffee table/sofa bed are great extras as well. The bed is very comfortable and Majar provided clean sheets, and an extra set of sheets and towels since my stay was quite long. The room is a good place to come back to after a long and tiring day in the city, where you can just relax away from Manhattan's busy streets. Shared bathroom was clean, and the kitchen has all the basics (including tea/coffee/water cooler provided by Majar) which is good for some people if you want to cook.
The neighborhood is not very interesting in general, not many good places to eat or shop around other than the basics. Nonetheless, everything you might need is within a couple of blocks or 2 minute walk (supermarket, laundry, fast food places, coffee shop, pharmacy, etc). The subway station (Halsey stop on the J line) is literally a 3 minute walk, which is pretty much the best thing about the location. The neighborhood is quite diverse, mixed cultures and economic backgrounds, but that might be interesting for a lot of people, including myself. Regardless of the grungy feel of the neighborhood, I actually felt safe all the time. I walked back alone from the subway on many occasions at late hours (3am) and didn't really worry or anything, it's pretty safe if you keep to yourself. This is a bit far out in Brooklyn, so it is obviously not as well served or crowded as other parts closer to Manhattan (such as Williamsburg) but that's just a 15 min train ride away.
In general, I would definitely recommend this place for anyone visiting or staying here for a while for work (like me), the commute to downtown Manhattan is about 30-40min and to Midtown around 1hr, but that shouldn't be an issue since the subway is so close to the house. The buses can connect you to downtown Brooklyn or you can Uber in Brooklyn which is not too expensive actually. Great place, thanks Majar for communicating promptly and clearly, I would definitely stay here again when I'm back!
