Location is close to the subway and very affordable. Michelle is easy to communicate with, responds quickly and really nice! The brownstone has plenty of character and it's in the heart of Brooklyn.
However, there were a few issues that guests should consider.
- The main door is difficult to lock. We struggled each morning (although Michelle told us it would be fixed). There are other AirBNBs at the property so there were some security concerns.
- Heating is centrally controlled. The thermostat was turned up after we mentioned the chill, and a small heater subsequently provided.
- Cleanliness. Bathroom and kitchen cutlery could do with a good scrub.
- Noise. A church bell rings out every half hour in the mornings, stairs are creaky and Michelle has a young family. We didn't notice this by the end of our stay, though.
- Light. We had to block out the light streaming through the front entrance in the morning. Conversely, the bedroom ceiling light didn't work during our stay.
All in all, minor things that will hopefully be fixed. Thanks for having us!
