The flat is located in the rough area of Brooklyn, but it is more our fault for not doing a research on the location. The subway station is super close though as advertised, takes approx. an hour to get to Times Square. The host was really lovely and helpful, for that reason I would go back. I would still highly recommend the flat for those who rather spend more time out and about in the city centre, than stay in, and those who want to pay less for accommodation than a fancy, really expensive hotels in Manhattan. Just take into consideration not to go back to the flat after 10pm as you may not feel safe or travel in a group. All in all, thanks for having us. Really good holiday!
