I traveled to the city with my parents to spend Thanksgiving with my sister who lives in Brooklyn. We needed to stay several days and knowing how impractical a hotel would be price-wise, I decided to try this site and found Lauren's listing. Just let me say that her apartment is exactly as it is presented; it really is as nice and clean as the pictures show and the neighborhood is also very nice and close to the train. You can easily get around the city from here, but once you're done with the hustle and bustle of some of the busier parts, it's quiet enough at the end of the day to settle in. There's a deli across the street that has good smelling food (I didn't try but just watching them prep the food made me hungry) and a variety of foods perfect for your stay such as dairy, meats, snacks, beer etc.

Lauren is a very accommodating and helpful host. She responds to any questions or concerns extremely fast and makes sure you have everything you need to make your stay comfortable. Any time I emailed her with a question, I had a response within a few hours, if that long. I was very impressed as it can be stressful to coordinate a stay like this, but she made it very easy and comfortable!

I cannot recommend Lauren or her place enough, and I promise if you choose to stay here, you will NOT be disappointed in the least!
