It was great to be hosted by Dragan. He introduced the area to us, gave us few tips about commuting and that's all. We saw him only twice - the first and the last day, however, if we needed anything, he was available all the time.
Apartment itself is very cosy, clean, with comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen and bathroom (leave a hair dryer at home!), with a nice living room.
The place is very well connected with Manhattan and JFK airport; you need to change going to Brooklyn, but it is not inconvenient at all.
The nearest neighbourhood is quiet, however it is very close to the busy street with good places to have breakfast before setting off to the centre.
Definitely a good spot to stay if you are a tourist. Like!
