AirBnb is official and can be trusted.

Gordon place is phenomenal. I had the best time. There is a 10 min walk several stations: including the A, C, B, Q trains - some of which are express trains to Time Square.

His area has everything you need, from Deli's to several supermarkets (Walgreens, 99 Cent Store etc).

There's a 10 min walk to the Brooklyn Fulton Mall, where I was advised by several people to do my Clothing Shopping, because it's cheaper than Time Square/Midtown.

In Brooklyn/Gordon's area, you'll find restaurants that serve food from all across the globe including my mother country South Africa.

During the summer there are several free huge concerts in the different parks in Brooklyn with acclaimed artists/performers.

The Taxi ride, if you are coming from JFK, is only a half an hour to Gordon's place. Taxi's in New York are way cheaper than the country I stay in, which is Denmark/Europe. ENJOY
