We had a good time at the house in Bushwick. The house and room are very nicely furnished, everything is very comfortable and the kitchen is indeed fully equipped (Venessa lives here full-time so it is just like any home's kitchen). Venessa keeps the place clean and tidy. All the hosts (both the landlords and the "roommate" Venessa) were very friendly and hospitable and helped us with anything we would need. There is an aircon in the room but it is extremely loud, so the additional ceiling fan helped us out at night. The rest of the house was pretty warm in the August heat.
Two things we find important to note:
We did find the place quite noisy, given that the walls are thin and Venessa lives her normal life there, having guests, long phone calls etc. which are very audible in the small apartment. We know she never had any bad intentions but if you are looking for a calm place to sleep early, at least when we were there that proved to be difficult.
Secondly, there really isn't much in the area. The metro is about 15 minutes walk and we reliably took about 45 minutes into Manhattan. The house is in the very residential part so there aren't really any restaurants/bars etc. around. It didn't bother us much since we spent most of the day in Manhattan anyways.
Overall, we can definitely recommend the place but would just deduct 1 star based on the things mentioned above. Thanks for the hospitality!
