We had a great time staying in this Park Slope location and exploring NYC. We were just a few minutes walk from the subway (about a 35 minute ride to central Manhattan) and felt the neighborhood was very safe and enjoyable. The lodgings were exactly as described. Hilal was very accommodating of our arrival time, and helped us to arrange a luggage drop-off so we could explore the city unencumbered. There is a fairly steep flight of stairs up to the apartment, so it might not be the best choice for someone with any knee problems/mobility issues, but it was an excellent spot for us.
