Charmine is a great host! This place is amazing in space and cleanliness. The rooms were huge. We were only a 5 minute walk from the lines so it made getting to Manhattan extremely easy! Using the MTA app to navigate NYC was a life saver! There is so many stores and shops around this place that made grabbing groceries or a bite to eat super easy. One thing I will say is that we wish we knew to carry around reusable bags because every shop charges for plastic. The locals were nice and did not make us feel like outsiders, which we were worried about. We loved experiencing the culture of Brooklyn as there was music playing and many neighbors hanging outside through the evening and night. If you are someone who needs complete quiet to sleep, perhaps this isn't the place for you. It didn't bother us at all. I definitely would book this place again. Charmine answered all our questions as she values meeting each and every guest in person upon checking in. I loved that, thank you!
