Jessica’s place is beautiful on the inside but if you’re a tourist looking to get the New York experience of everything “New York”, this is not the place for you. This neighborhood is authentic Brooklyn and can be dangerous in some areas but Jessica’s place is very safe, with three locked doors, between your residence and the outside. But beware, it gets very hot in the basement/underground in which you stay. We were able to fix it by opening windows during winter time. We had some electrical issues our last night but Jessica was quick to respond.
