The "About this space" gives a very accurate description of pros and cons this place, read thoroughly! You will hear the lively host family and it sounded like the kitchen/dining room was above the bedroom. The bathroom is small and a wet room, but there is bench and plenty space outside the bathroom for all your toiletries. The house cleaner will want access to your space, but we were mostly out and about during that time and ran into her once.
Public transit is easily accessible with the subway a short walk away. The Flatbush neighborhood does have its grimy areas, but there are plenty bar and restaurant options. Some of our Favorites: Brooklyn Perk, The Black Nile, El Castillo De Jagua, Risbo, The Westbury Inn, and Midwood Flats. The host family was very accessible and accommodating.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place to early risers that plan to be out most of the day.
