Had a wonderful time staying at Tom and Lily's. The loft was beautiful, very clean and sharp looking. Flexible and very courteous hosts. They would even whisper as they ate breakfast if I was still sleeping in the morning. Always making sure i was comfortable. They even gave me some fruit and cookies for my drive home across the country. Great location for walking around brooklyn. The neighborhood was very interesting, alot of street art. I was planning on spending most of my trip in manhattan, but i ended up spending alot of time walking the blocks around Tom and Lily's loft. So many gorgeous murals and other interesting graffiti, along with different restaurants,bars, coffee shops etc. But the train into manhattan is very quick, about 15 minutes. It was a very good base for wandering around the city. I hope to stay with Tom and Lily again the next time I visit.
