Friendly pleasant hosts. Comfortable self contained (mostly) apartment.

Close to subway (and light rail - which I wished I knew could take me to the airport quite easily). Plenty of local food outlets and supermarkets.

With 3 children directly above and 3 adults, it was incredibly noisy, so no chance to sleep in past 6 or 6.30am.

Sirens of emergency vehicles and plenty of local assaults (crime stats for the area avail online), makes me think it was perhaps not the safest part of Brooklyn. Indeed, this was demonstrated when I had people banging on my door in the middle of the night seeking assistance for some ruckus outside.

Mattress was average, pillows were dreadful, more kitchen items should have been available.

Access to laundry and basement is only available through your living space so you may have a small amount of traffic.

An outside space was available for relaxing but plenty of space inside was sufficient for me.
