Alex’s apartment is beautifully designed, and has everything you need for a longer stay.
My girlfriend and I really enjoyed it.
I will go as far as saying that this is the best Airbnb apartment I stayed at!
Alex himself is supper responsive, extra friendly and provided great instructions.
That being said, the neighborhood is a different story, on the upside it’s relatively close to Williamsburg and a quick-ish subway ride to Manhattan.
But at least in our experience, the neighborhood does not feel safe at night.
The street where the apartment is located is fine, but the way leading to the subway felt a bit sketchy.
Unfortunately we had a very unpleasant experience, where we got mugged and threatened when we exited the subway station one evening. Thankfully we didn’t get hurt, but avoided walking around the neighborhood, especially at night.
*again, this is only a personal experience*
My advice would be to take an Uber when going out in the evening hours.
