Four of us stayed for 7 nights to do NYC tourist stuff. We arrived quite late the first night but it was easy to let ourselves in after climbing the steep flights of stairs.
We did not rent a car, so this was a perfect location for taking the subway, and that's what we did most of the time. We needed a taxi, uber/lyft a few times and it can get a bit pricey to this part of Brooklyn.
There are some good places to eat within walking distance of Rigoberto's place, especially if you're a bit adventuress. There's a tiny jerk chicken place on the way to the subway, a nice coffee/breakfast place called Lakou Cafe, a little farther walk you can get kosher barbecue at Izzy's, and fresh bagels at Bunch-O-Bagels.
Rigoberto is super responsive and a good communicator. He was quick to get us some fresh towels, and he even emptied the trash without us asking! Overall, the four of us were pretty happy and comfortable with the accommodations and the value of Rigoberto's place.
