The entire communication prior to our arrival was first class and very smooth and easy. Benjamin then sent an email the day before with specific directions due to construction works at the train station and Don (who met us on arrival) also sent an sms before we arrived which really helped me relax in the process of finding our way to their place which was made super easy because of that as well as the already great instructions. Don was out on the street waiting when we arrived and gave us a comprehensive run through of everything we needed to know about the apartment and our stay. On top of that he had made the most devine bread and jam which was such a special offering. Not only that but the fridge was full of things to "get us going" as Don put it; eggs, milk, butter, drinks, water amongst many other things. Also a bottle of wine!

Truly a b&b in the old meaning of the term and Benjamin and Don provide not only a comfortable and well equipped apartment, but are really genuine and friendly hosts who are there when needed, but not in your face.

Bushwick was for us a gritty working class area that we enjoyed for its friendliness and character and we felt safe at all times. It was great to observe the different cultures that were present there.
The location of the subway into the city was very close and easy which made sightseeing easy.

Thanks so much for providing such a good foundation, both physically and with the care you took in helping us.
