Stephen’s pad in Greenpoint is an isle of calm right near the action—but not too close. I enjoyed my stay there and would definitely stay there again.
The apartment itself is neatly appointed (a bit on the minimal side but tastefully so) and a clean and relaxing place to repair to after a day of socializing or taking in the city. The bed was comfortable and there even a modest view from the window.
Stephen also demonstrated a high degree of flexibility when it came to both check-in and checkout time, which I greatly valued. Communication is the key. Of course, good hosts and good guests already know that.
If you’re looking to spend a couple days in the Williamsburg/Greenpoint area, Stephen’s pad just might be the place you’re looking for.
