I visited NY in November 2022 and miraculously found Gayla's flat on Airbnb. The house is situated in a reasonable distance from Manhattan which can be accessed from the subway station (Utica) that is in 10 mins walking distance from the apartment. There are several restaurants in Brooklyn that are worth to visit in the neighborhood which made our stay even more pleasant.
The apartment alone is equipped with everything you could possibly need to feel at home including 2 bathrooms, all the necessities to prepare your breakfast or any other meal and a projection screen to watch some movies after spending all day in the city. We especially appreciated the floor heating in the bathrooms which, especially in this part of year, made us feel warm and cozy.
Gayla made us feel welcome even before we arrived to her place and provided us with all the information we needed to securely check in. She took care of us during all our stay too and always made sure we have everything we need.
I've been to a lot of Airbnb accommodations across the world, but this experience is definitely in top 3 I've experienced thus far.
Highly recommend this place to everyone!
