My boyfriend and I stayed at Brady's fun brownstone in Bed-Stuy. It was bright, colorful, and a great place to stay after a long day exploring the boroughs. It was a 5 minute walk to 2 subway stations. Though there was track work being done on the line into Manhattan when we stayed that made the ride longer, it usually is said to not be more than a 20 minute ride. Also the line directly connects to the JFK Airtrain, so again very convenient. The only qualm I had was the "Spring" room had no windows and only a covered up skylight. There was next to no air circulation or natural light coming in. For the price though, it is all in all a great place to stay.
