Great value! In an old building, but the apartment itself is quite nice, well-appointed, and seems recently redone. Not much of interest within walking distance, but it's a quiet enough area and has good access to the subway to get into more happening parts of Brooklyn (Barclays, Park Slope, etc.) and Manhattan, if that's your goal as it was ours. Worth noting though that the closest subway stop (Sterling St.) was closed for repairs for northbound trains while we were there, although it looks like it will be open again by November. Communication with host and check-in/check-out was smooth as well!
