Risha is a great host - communication is super easy with her and she is approachable and very friendly.
The studio is cozy and nice, it has a great view to the backyard and a chubby, playful cat in the front, you will find everything that you need. Not having a shower in the room seemed a bit disturbing at first (while Risha's description is cristal clear about it) as one has to coordinate with Risha for taking a shower, but everytime I reached out to her, it was less than five minutes to going upstairs.
If this is your first time in NYC, be reminded that Red Hook is about 45 minutes from things that you wanna see in Manhattan (there was a new ferry opened while we were there that is probably quicker). There's a bus that stops right by the street where this studio is located (B61), but your closest subway station is about 20 minutes walk which includes an overpass.
We had a great time in Risha's place, I definitely suggest staying there, and would go back again.
