    Value for money and an authentic experience.

    • Stayed 10 nights

    The apartment is NOT modern. Its not luxury. Things are broken. A door cant be locked. The fan in the bathroom is broken and makes a loud noise if you turn it on. The sink in the bathroom is broken and water stays there for a long time. The apartment was clean, but not all over - kitchen table had some sticky stuff on it in some areas. Last thing that you should consider: Cannabis is legal in NYC. Someone living there - maybe the owner or friends were smoking at least twice a day and the smell of it was in the stairs and in the room. I have nothing against someone using it, but if you cant stand the smell, maybe look for another place to stay. But remember that the smell of cannabis is in many places in New York. For the four of us, we thought this place was good value for money and we got to see and experience many things we wouldnt have, had we chosen a hotel room closer to downtown.

    We stayed at this place for 10 days in October 2023. Booked through booking.com. The neighborhood can seem a bit sketchy, especially after dark. We did feel safe enough and met many friendly people in the area. Only went out after dark a few times though. That being said, if you do choose to book a stay here, you are in for an authentic experience, instead of a boring hotel room. There are plenty of shops around to get all kind of amenities, or you can choose to get it delivered by one of the many apps like Grub Hub, Food Panda etc.

    The pictures show and the reality were different. The place needed some fixtures and care. Also when we arrived the place was not ready. The host did her best to bring all that we needed.

    The location was good, and a lot of eating places around

    it was small issue with keys on the beginning and we do not get enough bed sheets for all beds (7people), part of them wasn’t clean. appartement could be cleaner, mattress was extremely soft. general, small renovation would make a big difference, but generally, I would like to stay here one more time :).

    big appartement, with 2 separate double rooms, one separate single one and one with 2 double beds plus salon with sofa. good equipped kitchen and two bathrooms. very good price for even 10 people. coffee express was great:).

    One of the bedrooms share 2 couple beds and 1 single bed which makes uncomfortable because if on person wakes up all the rest will wake up immediately with the noise. additionally the bathroom is no accessible if the single bed in assembled, it stays in front of the bathroom door. besides, the floor makes loud noises when you walk and this wakes up everyone else too. atop of there, to go to Manhattan, it is about one and a half hour or more, take that into consideration.

    Very comfy and good area for a big group.

    The outer door locked however the actual house front door did not lock and the upstairs door lock was only a latch lock which would not matter as the door to the side of the internal front door opened with just a push. I feel this needs to be addressed for safety. The apartment is a good size especially for the price in New York area. I would just say it needs a little bit of an update in some areas and a refresh and maybe a declutter to appeal more to the family market. The only other area of concern were some of the switches and wires could they be sorted as electrics showing should not be allowed anywhere especially if there are small fingers. In the kitchen could someone look at the cabinets as a couple were looking tired and were in need of a little TLC. Infact if I had one thing to say give the place a bit of love and it could be an amazing place to stay.

    A good location about a 15 min walk to the underground. The area felt safe and was generally quiet. There was plenty of space in the apartment 3 good sized bedrooms all double and one small off shoot room for a child or single person. There were 2 bathrooms both had showers and the water was hot. There was a good sized dining table and a decent living room space with a TV for relaxing in. The apartment was one of a number in a brown stone house. This was the top floor one we liked that. There was small problem in the flat and the owners sorted this out very quickly credit to them. The kitchen worked well the cooker was good and the microwave and coffee machine were all in good working order as was the fridge. There was pretty good heating even when it was-23 but keep it on don't turn it off because you get too warm as it took a while to warm back up again.

    The location was fine overall, however there were a few physical issues with the place, like: a broken lock on the (inside) side door, an exposed wire or 2, and some cracks in the wall plaster, etc... but overall, it met my expectations. A minor issue was there were a few things missing including: soap, paper towels, any kind of saucepan, and garbage bags for the smaller/bathroom garbage containers. Also, the actual address was 2 miles (15+ minutes) further away than the address would have indicated, causing a greater difficulty to get to my events.

    The location was spacious, and the neighborhood was (city) residential and reasonably quiet. Anthony was available downstairs if needed and was very friendly.

    There could have been more facilities eg dish drying cloths, a kettle. In one of the bedrooms the curtains needed a way to be held back to let light in.

    The beds were quite comfortable and the apartment was spacious. Good location. Nice and quiet. I've stayed in a lot noise places in NYC.

    There is not an elevator but it's a brown stone with historical architecture. So much history is in this neighborhood. You have museums, shopping, great food 24 hour corner stores.

    Karen is a wonderful host. She made sure we felt like we were at home while in Brooklyn! This neighborhood had everything to offer a family. We thoroughly enjoyed Gabrielle Luxury Suites. I would recommend my friends and family to stay. I read the other reviews and I did not experience anything negative within the suite or neighborhood. It's a multi cultural area, We will be back.

    1. The room is not clean; I can see dust on the sofa. 2. The listing claimed that parking was available, but the owner lied about it. There is no designated parking space, and she pointed out a spot on the street where I received a parking ticket, resulting in a fine of over 100 dollars. 3. There is no lock that customers can use to secure the room from the inside. When I turn the handle, the door opens, and I have no idea if the room is locked from the outside. 4. The description of this place mentioned that it has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. However, one of the bathrooms is broken, and one of the rooms is filled with trash. 5. The building has three levels, and I can hear people talking from the floor above. 6. We were charged a significant amount for cleaning, but we were asked to take out the trash ourselves. 7. The owner lied to us. She claimed that since we couldn't check out by 11 am, we had to take the trash outside ourselves because she wouldn't be home. However, we discovered that she actually lived on the first floor.

    the price is cheap.
