When we arrived at the home, there was water on the floor in the basement. Apparently the cleaning service that was being used was dumping dirty water and debris down the shower drain resulting in a clog. Whenever the toilet, washer or sink downstairs was used, water and whatnot would come up in the shower. When the owner was notified, he was very apologetic. It was a holiday week and he was having trouble finding someone to come repair the problem. He gave me his word that he would make it right for us since there were 3 couples now sharing one bathroom. We stayed 6 nights and the downstairs water was repaired on the 5th night. I understand the owners dilemma of finding a repairman, but, I also know there are emergency services that respond quicker than 5 days later. We tolerated the inconvenience with the understanding that he would make things right for us. I explained that if we had wanted 6 people to share one bathroom for a week, we could have rented for significantly cheaper. When all was said and done, the owner not only did not make things right for us, but did not even respond to my emails and texts. We would even have taken another stay as compensation. The home itself had very comfortable beds and the size was sufficient. The neighborhood was authentic Brooklyn and a little loud at night, but entertaining. With the exception of the inconvenient plumbing problem, the home fit our needs. If the owner makes any commitments to you, be wary. Hopefully it will turn out better for you.
