The apartment was exactly as pictured - very clean, and has a very calming/serene feel. It's located on the bustling street of Bedford Ave, Brooklyn. The L metro station is right outside the apartment. Steps away are great restaurants, coffee shops, Whole Foods. It couldn't have been a better location in terms of convenience. But because of the busy street, there was so much noise at night, all throughout the night. Even with my earplugs on I would get woken up by the outside noise. The check-in process was super easy, and Mette was accommodating in terms of early check-in. Beware, you'll have to walk up 2 flights of narrow stairs to get to the apartment. It's typical for NY, but pack light or have help ready.
