Quartier agréable
The accommodation is very pleasant, the only criticism we could make is the insulation with Jarek's apartment because we heard all the footsteps and sounds emanating from his accommodation with many objects falling on the floor.However, the neighborhood is very pleasant and quiet with Prospect Park less than 5 minutes away on foot, and the metro nearby to go to Manhattan. There are many shops and restaurants nearby where we were able to meet very pleasant people.

AMAZING!!!
We recently spent three delightful months at Jarek's place, and the experience exceeded all my expectations. Here’s a breakdown of my stay:
Accommodation: The property was a cozy, well-furnished apartment located in a quiet yet convenient neighborhood. The space was meticulously clean upon arrival and equipped with everything I needed, including a fully stocked kitchen, comfortable bed, and a cozy living area. The host had thoughtfully provided little extras like fresh linens, toiletries.
Host Interaction: The host was exceptional, always quick to respond to any inquiries and eager to ensure my comfort. They provided detailed information about the property, local attractions, and even left a guidebook with recommendations for restaurants and activities. Their friendliness and attentiveness made the stay incredibly welcoming and stress-free. HUGE thanks for the dinner!
Neighborhood: The location was perfect—situated in a safe, tranquil area with easy access to public transportation, grocery stores, and local cafes. The neighborhood was vibrant yet peaceful, offering a true taste of local life. I enjoyed exploring the nearby parks and markets, and the proximity to the city center made it convenient for both work and leisure.
Amenities: The apartment came with all the necessary amenities, including a fast and reliable Wi-Fi connection, which was crucial for my remote work.
We are very much looking forward to meet Jarek and his family whenever we come back to NYC!!!

Much needed getaway
Had an amazing stay here. I had never stayed in this part of Brooklyn, but so glad I did. Walking distance to all the necessities — groceries, incredible bagels, Walgreens. I forgot to bring a few toiletries and was easily able to walk just a few minutes and grab what I needed. I took the train everywhere I needed to go with a stop only a few blocks away. It’s a quiet neighborhood that seemed to be a lot of families. I felt safe returning at night after meeting friends for dinner and a show. Laundry in the unit was a game changer and my sleep was not disturbed by the usual noise of staying in the City. Will absolutely return!
