Marta was enthusiastic about our stay, and accommodated the key handoff. She communicated amenities in the apartment and got back in a fairly timely manner. The apartment is close to great things in Brooklyn. Its best quality is the two bedrooms, which is unusual.

The apartment is more lived in than shown in the photos. The hallway could use a sweep, and the apartment itself is typical of older buildings, woodwork painted over multiple times, etc.

Folks in the apartment on the first floor with access to the courtyard sat outside both nights and talked loudly and played music. It was most egregious Saturday night, in which they were out until midnight, then went back out again at 3 a.m., then again at 10 a.m. Sunday morning. Because both bedrooms face the courtyard, and because, due to the heat, we wanted the windows open, this meant a night of disrupted sleep. Our only solution was to close the windows and blast the air conditioner, but the noise was still present. Marta did apologize and said it was unusual, but it seems if the people downstairs have access to a courtyard, they would use it frequently.
