Michelle was a lovely host. The room although in a family home is private with own bathroom and separate from the family spaces so feels like you in your own place.
The room is bright and cozy, as described, with own fridge, microwave and coffee/ tea making equipment etxlc. The bathroom is decent and Michelle provides toiletries, towels, and even robes!
There are good and easy bus and metro connections to Manhattan, as well as other parts of Brooklyn and even Queens and although it is a bit of a journey it is only expected as the price.
The neighborhood is a bit run down but I travelled back alone late evenings five days in a row and didn't have any issues.
Overall a great value for money.
