Jonathan is a fantastic host and made sure I felt comfortable in the flat from start to finish. He was always quick to respond to messages and always incredibly helpful. On a day when there was some disruption on the C train (the closest subway line), he checked in to make sure I knew how to come in and out. A fantastic host.
The flat itself is very comfortable and offers a huge amount of space, especially for New York. It is shaded, which means it is a little bit dark but in the NY summer heat, this was ideal as it made the flat cooler. The bed is very comfortable and the kitchen very well equipped. I was staying for a couple of weeks and was provided with plenty of supplies, including additional towels, kitchen towels, etc. to see me through the period. The flat was overall clean, though a bit dusty in places and could do with a deep clean perhaps. But nothing major.
The location is great. The C train stop is less than 5 minutes walk away and there are buses down the road too, which are very convenient for Williamsburg, Greenpoint as well as Prospect Park, etc. There are plenty of shops in the area as well as a number of independent cafes and restaurants. I really enjoyed my stay. Felt safe and very much at home and would happily stay at Jonathan's again when I am in NY next.
