Pros:
Host is very sweet
stylish decor
Comfortable bed
Warm heat in the winter
Stairs aren’t too narrow or tall coming up
Laundry right next to apartment entrance
Only one block from subway
SO many good restaurants (zona sur, el taco bronco restaurant, yafa cafe,etc)
Right above wine/liquor store with fair pricing
Near some cool parks
Felt very safe walking in neighborhood (even at night)
Street noise is not bad with window open once rush is over (a lot of honking from 5-8 but after that very quiet for New York)
Shower pressure very good
Was allowed to drop off suitcases early
Comfy bed/bedding
Cons:
Not exactly as pictured, no desk and nightstand drawer was broken, a little rough.
Small dark hairs in bathroom sink and shower when we checked in/some of the days
A little bare bones
Overall I did enjoy my stay here and fell in love with the neighborhood. Great place for a short trip to the area. Downtown Brooklyn was 20-30 minutes and Manhattan was about 45-55 minutes away.
