I had to wait for my apartment to be ready and I stayed at Lara's place for two weeks. Her apartment is in a perfect location for Brooklyn, a few blocks from the subway, Prospect Park, shopping, restaurants, bars. The room is spacious for NYC and you can see the high rises of downtown Brooklyn. After staying with Lara for two weeks, I felt like she was more my friend than just a host. She's very sweet and I really enjoyed getting to know her. If you need an airbnb in Brooklyn, I definitely recommend this.
