Myself and two children (age 16 and 22) had a wonderful stay here for a week at the end of July, 2021. You'll find the place as advertised and represented in the pictures. The bedroom, in fact, felt slightly larger than was my impression from the pictures. The well-equipped kitchen, separated from the living room by a half-wall, was generously sized by New York standards. The couch in the living room folds out into a bed, and Paul was kind enough to procure an extra mattress for the living room where the two kids had their own space with the TV. While the apartment would best be described as cozy, it would easily accommodate a couple with one or two children, as it did for a week in my own case. As noted in the description, the apartment is on the top floor of a standard Brooklyn brownstone, so expect two flights of stairs.
Two priceless things, not mentioned in the description: the apartment was very quiet and surrounded by trees. Having lived in NYC for 10 years, I can testify to value of this scarce quality of quiet. The apartment was wonderfully quiet both in the evenings and in the mornings. As for trees, the curtains in the bedroom are drawn in the pictures, but when opened, they reveal, not a wall or an urban wasteland, but the leafy green tops of trees.
The location, in the southwest corner of Bed-Stuy, was excellent. The neighborhood felt safe at all times, day and night. Parking was almost always available and the alternate side of the street dance that people with cars must execute was never a problem. There was a large market a block away, and a good coffee shop (Playground Coffee) was a few blocks farther. The area is residential in nature, so those looking for a wide range of restaurant options will need to walk a few blocks.
Finally, Paul, the host, was remarkably present and conscientious. I've stayed at 10-15 AirBnB places over the last few years, and Paul ranks above all other hosts with whom I've had experience. He procured a mattress and brought it up two flights of stairs; he also helped us bring boxes upstairs as well. Highest possible marks on the hosting front.
