Ben's place is in a great location for visiting Williamsburg and Manhattan. Ben was really helpful in supplying us with last minute accommodation when another host cancelled on us, furthermore the rooftop of the apartment is really great. However while Ben was really helpful the apartment itself was a bit of a letdown. The images were taken in what I'd say was an "optimistic" fashion and there was a general uncleanness to the apartment. The bedroom itself felt very unclean with coffee stains on the walls and a lot of dirt/dust. If you are going with the idea of a Brooklyn loft experience I think it is better to readjust your expectations as the place feels more like a student dorm in terms of cleanliness and upkeep, which for the price was a little disappointing. But again Ben was very helpful in supplying us with a place that is well located at the last minute.
