Dirk was an amazing host! He was extremely kind and welcoming, and he even took the time to show me around NYC and give me tips on different places to go. The apartment was beautiful and very clean. The room was a lot larger than expected, and there was a nice big window through which the sun would come in, in the morning (: .
The apartment was also very well located. The train was about a 10 min walk, as well as the Williamsburg Bridge, on which I would sometimes ride my bike in order to get to Brooklyn. There were a lot of great restaurants in the area, and a delicious donut and bagel shop 10 min away. If I were to ever come to NYC again, I would definitely stay with Dirk. By the time I left, I felt as though Dirk had become one of my own good friends (:
