I found the apartment spacious and very comfortable. The host(s) respond promptly to requests and (minor) issues. The kitchen is well equipped with a full size refrigerator and stove, and new appliances like toaster, microwave, and drip coffee maker (including coffee, tea, etc). The location is a quiet residential street, just off a bustling avenue. Short walks to grocery stores, restaurants, bars, etc.
This part of Brooklyn is "real" NYC. Lots of small business mom-and-pop shops, with few chainstores (I noticed a Dunkin Donuts, but fresh bagels a block away drew me in). A melting pot of old-time residents and more recent immigrants, with wonderful restaurants reflecting the history of the area, from German beer hall and Italian restaurants with handmade pasta, to Yemeni cafes and Mexican taquerias. Travel the world through food and conversations!
