Everything as announced. Although we only got to meet Jana on the last day, that wasn't a problem: the check in is simple enough, all the needs and questions were answered asap and we the apartment was precisely what we booked.
The ac was a plus (we were in NY during an heatwave and inside the house we didn't feel it), the beds very confortable, the kitchen well equiped with all the things necessary, the bathroom good (the washer and drier came in handy) - don't forget to bring shampoo and bodywash (as stated in the add, the comodities are basic in this chapter) and the living/eating room is spacious. We didn't managed to profit from the backyard as we had some extreme weather but we'll do it next time.
The apartment is a 10 minute walk to the subway (Bergen St or Carroll Gardens) and on the main commercial street where the stations are located you can find lots of restaurants and cafes. Supermarket is a 10 minute walk also. The area felt safe and cosy and by subway you'll hit Lower Manhattan in 30 mins tops. For a family (or couple) that wants a quiet neighbourhood with good location, I think this is a safe bet.
