While I would not say that I am an Airbnb veteran, I have stayed in about six different rentals and this one was far and away our best experience. I only wished that I had arranged our trip so that we could have stayed longer. I don't think that you can find a more hospitable and gracious hostess than Ashley. She proactively thought of every detail and was incredibly considerate before, during and after our short stay. The apartment is absolutely lovely and every detail was lovingly considered. The area is a lot of fun, and includes a real diversity of Brooklyn life. It's a short walk to Prospect Park, including the botanical gardens, zoo, library and museums. Eastern Blvd, designed by none other that Frederick Law Olmstead is a treasure and not even two blocks away. One a 10 point scale, this rental rates an 11, and Ashley rates a 12!
