Veronica's place has an outstanding location in the Bay Ridge area of Brooklyn. It is a block from the R train (30-45 minutes to Times Square) the B63 bus stop is just outside her door, there is a laundrymat next door, a grocery store 1/2 a block away, liquor store across the street, too many restaurants/delis/99 cent stores to mention, and shopping is all over. Could not ask for a better location.
The apartment was super clean and the bedroom was comfortable and secured with a keyed lock. It was a little disheartening to have just a window A/C in the bedroom, but as I said, Veronica was all over getting me fans to help me stay as cool as possible. I was there for 4 weeks through a very hot July and I was able to stay comfortable.
Also, I should note that the apartment has 2 BR and 1 BA. Veronica and her small dog, Coco, occupy the front BR which has its own entrance, but you are ultimately sharing the bath and kitchen. This WAS NOT an issue during my long stay. Veronica usually came home late (I go to sleep early in the evening) and she sleeps late (I am out early in the morning). Throughout my 4 week stay, I think I saw Veronica and Coco 4-5 times. She...and Coco...are very nice and super easy to get a long with, so I don't look at any of this as a negative, just full disclosure.
If I'm ever in Brooklyn again, I'd stay at Veronica's if it is available
