Ashley accommodated us at the very last minute and graciously allowed us to check in earlier than the usual time, which was greatly appreciated as we were arriving on a very early flight.
She also allowed us to check out when suited us. Her flexibility in this regard was a huge help and made our trip so much easier! Thank you!
The apartment was exactly as described, and really warm, cosy and welcoming.
She left fresh flowers, fruit, water, juice, eggs, milk and snacks for us. It was so great to have these supplies having only just arrived in New York.
The flat felt very secure and was an easy block's walk to the subway station. The journey into Manhattan was a little longer than I'd anticipated, although as we spent all day outside exploring it didn't matter so much.
On the upside, there are loads of Uber cabs in the area and I can recommend using the Uberpool, which makes rides in Brooklyn really cheap :-)
The wifi was working impeccably so we had no problem booking a few taxis.
The flat was spotlessly clean and well provided for in terms of dishes, pots and pans. The laundry facilities were a huge bonus.
Ashley checked up on how we were regularly. We never met in person, which was a great pity, but we also valued the privacy she gave us.
I would 100% recommend staying at Ashley's place and would definitely come again.
