Alan we extremely hospitable, and maintained great communication with me throughout the week I stayed at his place. I was in town to scout apartments to move to NY permanently, and he even took the time to get me information on brokers and good websites on which to arrange viewings. Alan was much more of a host than anywhere else I've stayed through Airbnb.

As for the apartment, the first thing that struck me was the cleanliness of my room - the linens seemed brand new. There was an air conditioning unit that worked perfectly, and the hangers in the closet came in handy. I felt right at home in the living room and dining room too! His place is only a short walk to the subway, with midtown Manhattan about 35-45 minutes away. I couldn't have asked for a better Brooklyn experience!
