My friend and I were in Greenpoint for a wedding, and Eleonora could not have made us feel more welcome at her home.

Her place is STUNNING, with plenty of space for sleeping, relaxing, and a enjoying a lovely little backyard. We truly wanted for nothing. (And the neighborhood is great too - plenty of options for restaurants and bars, all within walking distance.)

Above all, Eleonora was a beautifully gracious host, going out of her way to share her home with us. One example: She treated us to homemade smoothies the day after the wedding (when we, not surprisingly, weren't feeling at our personal best). She was flexible and easygoing and - by the time we left on Day Three - felt like a longtime friend.
