Staying in Kristina’s place was a great time and we loved her dog sugar. She was very affectionate and a welcome sight after a long day of travelling.
The bedroom is small as mentioned in other reviews, but we really didn’t see any issue with this. The air con worked perfectly and we easily got two large suitcases and all belongings in the room.
The apartment is beautifully decorated and always seems very light and airy which was pleasant for us when eating breakfast etc. It’s important to note that the apartment is on the 4th floor with no lift in the building. The steps are quite steep and large in number. This wouldn’t be a suitable place for anyone who does struggle with stairs (if this isn’t an issue for you, then this is the perfect place). The rooftop view is likely one of the great highlights of this place, as it has incredible views of Manhattan. Definitely give this a look while you stay.
The location is perfect with great transport links to the L train bus Bedford Avenue, and the J & M trains via Marcy Avenue. Both stations go towards Manhattan within 10 mins. Nearby further into Williamsburg are some great restaurants towards Bedford Avenue (10 min walk away) with a laundrette down the road and a few corner shops.
Thank you to Kristina for being so welcoming and having some toiletries for guests use, as this helped save money naturally. We found her to be very accommodating and a great host all around.
