My stay here was incredibly positive. It was so easy to communicate with Christine. From the time I initially booked the room, to her check ins throughout my stay and then on departure, I always felt like she was accessible and yet, I had full privacy. This stay felt like I was in my own private apartment - the separate entrance, room and bathroom are so convenient. The pictures are wonderful, but the room exceeded my expectations even after seeing the great photos. This house is close to the subway (5-8 min walk) which took us into Manhattan, usually in 30 minutes or less depending on where we wanted to go. It is apparent that Christine has great care and concern for her guests - the little personal and comforting touches in the room made the stay all that much better: ironing board and iron, Kleenex boxes, shampoos and soap provided, hair dryer, a wonderful remote-controlled fan that we used frequently, menus for local restaurants and more. We love Brooklyn and always feel at home here, but I know some people aren't as familiar with the area and on that note, anyone can feel extremely secure in this home - your key allows you to lock three doors behind you so you're all safe and secure. Christine has thought of everything including the blackout curtains and shades -- the room was so dark and quiet at night that we got amazing sleep and were refreshed for our adventures in NY each day. Within walking distance we found our favorite morning coffee - Cinnamon Girl, and our favorite place for delicious food and a nightcap - Midland Flats. Highly recommend both! Upon checkout, Christine stopped down to make sure we were all set and let us out. I've done a lot of AirBnB and VRBO stays over the years and without hesitation, I would rate this my #1 stay. I will look very much forward to staying here again any time I have the chance.
