The apartment was very nice and very close to the subway. You have everything that you need in the neighborhood and right next to the apartement you can even go and visit Prospect Park.
It is important to note that on AirBnB you don't get a Hotel experience but to live in a place that is or once was a home. Of course small details are not what you would expect to see in a hotel, such as the shower head being slightly inconveniently placed or what not, but it came with everything that made you feel at home and at ease. All in all it was a great apartment to stay at.
What was especially nice that Lorna has stocked the shelfs with nice kitchen equipment such as salt, pepper, spices and the left over, non-perishable foods are to be left for the next tennants, so that there would be no waste. Recycling is also strongly recommended which we apreciated. The same goes for the bathroom where you have shampoo, conditioner, q-tips, desinfectant etc. Very convenient.
The only gripe I have with the apartment is the faucet in the kitchen. On the first day, the water wasn't running and Lorna told us to give it time, it will turn on after some time. It indeed did. A plumber was to be scheduled she said. Fast forward to the last day and me being tired, human error and Lorna not fixing the faucet in time, resulted in a minor flooding (after the Water stopped running while doing the dishes at night and I left the faucet open and it started running again early in the morning) of the apartment that leaked through the other floors. Due to that we had a very unpleasant day of check out that consisted of cleaning, apologizing to the other tennants and talking to AirBnB, worrying whether everything was going to be okay.
I am sure that Lorna has taken action by now and there should be now nothing wrong with the apartment at all, in which case I can 100% recommend for this place being a safe and smart alternative to a hotel room in Brooklyn. Here you can get the real Brooklyn experience. I also must add that communication went very smoothly throughout our week, especially during the mini-flooding, Lorna was very relaxed and handled the situation very well. Another big plus were the AC units in every room of the apartment that made 2 of the very hot nights very bearable. Apart from that the fan at the ceiling was more than enough to sleep through warmer nights.
