Freddy is probably one of the best hosts you'll come across - very friendly, accommodating, and helpful.
The apartment is extremely clean and comfortable and has everything you need for your stay. The amazing heat system was especially handy when we hit 2F in NYC. Awesome TVs in every room.
The location is probably the most authentic blue-collar Brooklyn you'll experience (I grew up in Brooklyn and know these parts very well). If you are looking for the Manhattan experience or Williamsburg, this isn't the place for you. This is a true neighborhood with shops that evolved over time to support the neighborhood, not tourism. You will find few (there are some) big chain stores here, but you will find an excellent pizza shop, a Dominican restaurant just around the corner, and way, way, way more if you wander a block or two past.
The place is also conveniently located. You are 45sh minutes away from Manhattan and 30 minutes away from anywhere else in Brooklyn/Queens. Overall, 10+/10.
