Very clean, super chic, and the location is phenomenal!!!
My boyfriend and I stayed at Carla's place in Brooklyn while we were attending a NYE concert (The Strokes) at Barclays Center. I could not have asked for a better location to stay. We drove into NY from Boston and paid to park at a garage that was a 2 min walk from Carla's place. I was aware that there could be street parking but we did not want to risk it with the holiday, so we opted to buy a spot in the garage.
Arrival/Check Out: Checking in and out was easy with the lockbox. Carla was responsive to any messages I sent her. We had no problem getting in and out of the apartment.
Surrounding Area: We felt safe in the area and were able to walk to every one of our destinations. There was no shortage of food options in the area, and we were even able to walk to the zoo. I wish we were able to get over to the restaurant James (2 min walk, maybe even less), but it was harder to book since NYE dinners were packed. We were still able to get a pre fix dinner option at Maison Yaki (7 min walk) for NYE and it was amazing! It took us less than 10 minutes to walk home from Barclays.
Carla's Apt: Was really clean and tastefully designed. The kitchen seemed to be recently renovated. In my opinion, this was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in with airbnb. I sleep with a mattress pad at home and I hate stiff beds. This one felt really comfy to me! My favorite part about the whole apartment was the big full size mirror in the bedroom. It allowed for me to see my whole NYE outfit and take some cute selfies :) There was also a TV in both the living room and bedroom. The one in the bed room was a little far away, but my boyfriend and I enjoyed using the TV in the living area. The Wifi worked great and we were able to utilize our Apple TV that we brought to watch some of our shows.
I would definitely stay with Carla again in Brooklyn!
