My stay with Orestes couldn't have been better. He is a warm, kind and gentle person with a fabulous place and a sweet dog. I enjoyed being surrounded by beautiful artwork in a serene and rich environment that was created in Orestes' vision. If the weather had been warmer, I would have spent some time in his garden oasis. The location is convenient to midtown and Brooklyn without the Manhattan price tag. Plus, there's a great coffee shop/restaurant around the corner and an authentic 24hr. diner in the neighborhood.
