Christian's apartment is in a good but older Brooklyn neighborhood. Our check in and check out was very smooth. Its access to the L line is excellent. The neighborhood has food shopping and restaurants within a couple of blocks. One Thai Restaurant which is close by and we loved was "Link". As far as the apartment goes, we chose it because of its value. The apartment was vey clean. As it is a railroad type of apartment, the kitchen and small bathroom are at one end, then you pass by the TV and pull out queen couch and the queen bedroom is on the far end. We made it work for four, with friendly and tolerant people. We all found the apartment very satisfactory.
