I was on vacation with my family, the apartment is a specious apartment in a classic Brooklyn neighborhood. I liked the neighborhood, it felt safe to me anytime I'm out. I liked that we could find everything around the corner. the subway station is very close (less than 5 minutes) which you can take to Manhattan on a single train. The host was very responsive to our questions and he tried to help with all of our needs.
Something to keep in mind is that this apartment is the apartment where the host family live and they only rent it out when they're on vacation, so it will have their stuff in there.
