Bara was an excellent host and his place was a wonderful place to stay in New York City as a female solo traveler! Even though this was my first time traveling alone, I felt very safe in his apartment and in the general area of Brooklyn. His apartment is right by the train and a super close walk to the ferry. It is also prime location relative to Whole Foods, food spots, thrift stores, and anything else you may be looking for in Williamsburg.
In regards to his apartment, it seems newly renovated and exceptionally clean. His kitchen was furnished, living space was tidy, and personal room was large enough to live comfortably. Bara was very accessible and we often communicated over text. He was very accommodating and kind and I would definitely stay with him again.
10/10 recommend for anyone to stay with Bara!
