This was not only our first time in Brooklyn but our first airbnb experience as well, so I was not entirely sure what to expect. The apartment was very clean and felt safe despite not knowing much about the surrounding neighborhood. We arrive much later than expected due to train delays and Sole made it very easy to acquire the keys to her apartment. Other residents in the building were also friendly. Her directions were very clear and she always responded within minutes of contacting her. As described, the apartment is an easy 7 minute walk to a main subway station that required no transfers to many places of interest in both Brooklyn and Manhattan. We were visiting to see an exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum and Botanic Gardens and while this apartment is a bit further away from these areas than other rentals, the price was very affordable. Honestly, the only complaint, and this is NOT the host's fault, is that it is very loud outside at night, while the air conditioner helped drown out the noise, those less accustomed to city living would be wise to pack earplugs. Noise aside, we were very happy with our experience and plan on using airbnb again.
