Great location for those seeking the Brooklyn experience outside of the typical extra-trendy destinations. We loved this corner of the Bed-Sty neighborhood. There is an incredible world of restaurants, bars and coffee shops within walking distance. So much so that we didn’t even get around to eating the local Pizza.
Crystal’s block is pretty quiet for the area and is surrounded by a lively night scene in all directions. Subway access to Manhattan and the rest of the city is all within walking distance.
The apartment itself is spacious and ideal for traveling groups. The bed we slept in was among the most comfortable we’ve experienced in our AirBnB travels.
The rooms all came with generous closet space and dresser room. Much appreciated if you’re traveling with lots of luggage. Bathrooms were clean with good shower pressure.
Notes to consider - Crystal’s unit is dominated by a very large dining table and kitchen. This is great if you plan to cook or just need the surface to work, but the actual sofa/livingroom area is small and lacks a TV. So if your priority is to have a place to unwind and stream shows at the end of the day, you may find this discouraging.
Overall we enjoyed the value and location of Crystal’s apartment. We had never enjoyed this corner of Brooklyn and are glad we did.
