The apartment was great! Super clean and bright, with everything exactly as pictured (it's actually bigger than the pictures make it seem, lots of space to move around and not get in each other's way). The beds are both very comfortable, the closet in the main bedroom is huge, and the couch is awesome. The bathroom and kitchen are both really small but well appointed (no tub, just a stand up shower). The shower doesn't have a lot of pressure, but it was enough. The apartment takes up the top floor of a brownstone, which means lots of narrow stairs to navigate. At the time we stayed there was no air conditioning, and in the middle of a heat wave it got REALLY hot in the apartment. Lamee has really good ceiling fans, as well as floor fans, but we still got cooked inside. Lamee's super sweet mom told us that the plan is to install AC soon, which will make the apartment that much more awesome. Also, just a note, there isn't any type of entertainment (tv, radio, etc), so if you require it bring your own laptop/speakers/radio.

The apartment is equal distant between the Myrtle Ave (J & M trains) and the Utica (A & C trains) stations, about a 15 minute walk. There was a bus we could have taken to Myrtle, as well as CityBikes less than a block away and at both train stations. Getting into Manhattan was easy and fast from both stations. The neighbourhood felt safe and had a lot of character. Lots of bodegas both directions on Lewis, as well as a number of really great restaurants (we loved Peaches!).

Lamee was a great host, very fast with communication, answered all my questions and was super accommodating with requests. We didn't meet him in person, but as I mentioned, met his mom and she is so sweet. He uses a lock box for keys, so check in and out were both super easy.

And did I mention how CLEAN the apartment was? Definitely recommend! Thanks again Lamee!
