The space is clean, slightly smaller than it looks on the pictures (we were 4 people). The kitchen offers options to cook basic meals. You cannot open the windows; instead you can use air-condition (or rather loud built-in ventilators) to cool down in hotter months. The location offers line A and C, 7 blocks away, which will take you straight to Manhattan, otherwise G train 3 blocks away, to get you to Manhattan, if you change once again.
You can find multiple supermarkets around, the best was Metropolitan city market around the corner. On Nostrand around the corner there is a good diner to get some tacos or burgers.
The neighbours were silent and civil.
At nights we didn’t feel super safe in the neighbourhood, specifically we would advise to stay away from crossing Nostrand to continue on Gates avenue, as the street has various shelters for homeless, not alone groups of young individuals who will not spare you from feeling intimidated.
In general, this is Brooklyn and keep your heart open, and on the street you might bounce into people selling good old fashioned lemonade for good cause, how delightful it was to see it.
The communication with Ravanna was straightforward before the arrival, the instructions were clear and all worked out well with the keys etc. At the end of our stay we repeatedly asked for a favour, however our emails stayed unanswered, which took us aback.
Enjoy your stay and do not dare to miss Brooklyn Bridge (High street station).
