Brian's place is beautiful and stylish! It definitely felt like home and I had an amazing time staying there. The neighborhood is very safe in my opinion. So I walk to Rockaway AV to catch the metro everyday during my stay. If I ever travel to Brooklyn again, I will definitely book Brian's place if it is available. Also, Brian is an excellent host and very accommodating. I truly appreciate his help in getting me situated after a 22 hours flight. It breaks my heart to leave. I wish I could stay longer. I would highly recommend Brian's place to anyone! :-)
