Giovanni was very welcoming and easy to talk to. He greeted us at the door when we arrived and showed us everything we needed to know about his home (even the shower, which is always tricky at someone else's house!). We loved his big open kitchen and cooked breakfast and lunch to save some money during our trip. It was also great to have a washer and dryer handy, which is probably hard to come by in Brooklyn. We loved that we didn't have to use any stairs or elevators, and that we could easily park our car on the street right in front of the house. We had a lovely time in Brooklyn and will keep Giovanni in mind if we visit again! I highly recommend him!
