Amazing 2 BR Brownstone Apt.

The place was spotless and even better than the listing, thanks to the vibe. The style was minimalist, lots of natural light. The neighborhood has everything you need within walking distance. I got the feeling that this is a new listing because there were a couple of things we had to ask Elito for (plunger, paper goods). He brought them right away. Classic Brooklyn street with people sitting on their stoops, stopping to talk to their neighbors. The subway and bus lines are nearby and can take you anywhere. It was a good experience.

Overall very good. To make this an A+ here're suggestions: 1) Bathroom mirror/medicine chest can be lowered 6, 2) replace some LED bulbs near kitchen and have Super regularly check these between rentals, 3) add wall-side handrail on first flight of stairs, 4) nice, heavy windows need lubrication for easier operation, 5) a working SMART doorbell/lock would be great

This was perfect for our stay. Close to the metro station and close to all sights we wanted to see. The beds were very comfortable. The only drawback was the steps for my 80 year old dad, but he was able to manage. This was his first trip to NY and he enjoyed the flexibility of the VRBO rather than a hotel. Elito was very responsive to questions. I would definitely stay again.

The apartment was a great place to come home to after spending the day exploring NYC. The beds were comfortable and everything clean and fresh. We did have few problems getting in (some of which were our fault) but Clay from downstairs was most helpful. He even carried our suitcases up the narrow stairway! There were two subway stations within walking distance. Lots of work happening in the neighbourhood so this will only improve the experience. Would stay again and would recommend to others.

comfortable and great location

Very nice

The apartment is large and well organized and is a 5 minute walk from the metro stop. The area is overall quiet even if the road is noisy. Some difficulties to open the door which has a defective lock. The view from the double bedroom overlooking an internal courtyard used as a deposit by the inhabitants of the neighboring apartments is not particularly pleasant.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. They are doing some upgrading to the building which I know will only enhance the place. The checkin process was easy and the apartment looks exactly like the photos. We were extremely comfortable throughout our stay. We just wished there had been extra washcloths like there were hand and bath towels. When in the area again, we would definitely book this place if it’s available.

We enjoyed our stay for the amount of time we were in NYC. The bedding/towels were fresh and clean and more then enough. The master bed was very comfortable, the 2 singles were a bit hard and the roll away beds kept collapsing so we walked to home depot and got bungee cords to hold the legs open and it was fine after that. The wifi was good and great tv services. Some of the furniture was quite rough in condition but still usable. I thought the kitchen area could have been cleaner the cabinets were a bit sticky, the garbage can was flithy and we had to rewash some dishes before we could use them, but I know the owner has cleaners come in between renters and I think he needs to address them on there quality of work. We just got some disinfecting wipes to touch up but it really wasn't that big of a deal. I think the owner could improve people's stay by adding a broom or a stick vacuum and some cleaner since there's no housekeeping during your stay, it would have been nice to keep it tidy. It's about a 10 minute walk to the C train to go to Manhattan and about a 30 minute commute into the city. The grocery stores in the area are limited and expensive so I suggest pick up supplies before you come. Also parking was a bit of a pain. We prepaid for underground parking about 10 minutes away and just used the subway system (about $80 for 5 days/no in and out) there is street parking available in front of the apartment but it was always full so we were glad to have made an advanced reservation. This was a great affordable option to visit NYC!!

Well situated with convenient access to the Metro and restaurants, this worked pretty much perfectly for our purposes. The neighborhood is somewhat transitional, but we encountered no problems. The people we interacted with were all pleasant. The apartment itself is on the second floor, behind two locked entryway doors. We had moments of struggle opening the apartment door itself, but that was as much us as the door (turn and pull toward you). The bedrooms were well-appointed, and the living room/kitchen comfortable and utilitarian. Every room had a window AC, and internet was flawless. Two quirks of the bathroom - in the renovation, the wall tiling continued high up, so that it forced the placement of the mirror rather high. Not convenient for a person under 5'7. The bathroom sink also had surprisingly weak stream of water. That can likely be corrected at the valve level, but we opted not to mess with anything. The shower-bath was excellent, with ample hot water for the three staying there. All-in-all a great choice, and I recommend it to anyone coming to Brooklyn, especially if you want easy access to Manhattan.
