I think that this is an amazing deal. It is located on a quiet street with really fun restaurants, shops and bars. Just two blocks away is a Starbucks and bustling Bedford Ave. The location is perfect for Brooklyn. Across from the Starbucks is the L train station. Hop on and you are in Manhattan in one stop.
There are no stairs (something important for older travelers who don't like to lug luggages up several flights). the communal space is small, quite and stocked with everything I needed. I found coffee, scissors, fresh (cold) purified water, a stove, and a fridge.
My room was small, cozy and clean. Perfect for one or two people. The bed was large and comfortable. Despite the fact that there were other travelers staying in the adjacent rooms I really didn't hear anything. It is very private and so convenient.
When I did bump into a fellow traveler or Atthapon on my way out or headed to the bathroom it was always pleasant and quick. There is a communal sitting patio in the back which is also nice.
If you are an easygoing traveler looking for a great local spot in Brooklyn, this place is a score. I plan to stay again whenever I return to Brooklyn. Highly recommended.
