We have just returned from a week long stay at Alison and Danes beautiful apartment in Clinton Hill and we really couldn't be happier. Previous to our visit Alison was on hand to answer any questions we had and gave us some great recommendations for restaurants as it was our honeymoon and we wanted to get a few things booked in. The local Italian Locanda Vini & Olii was amazing and there are also many other places to eat and drink in the area - which you will read all about in the very comprehensive Handbook when you arrive.

The apartment was just as described and it was so lovely to have a home from home to come back to at the end of the day. Its extremely peaceful and spotlessly clean. I think we will struggle to book into a hotel again after such an positive experience on our first ever Air BnB trip.

As for the area, the apartment is on the cusp of Clinton Hill and Bedford–Stuyvesant. Whilst this was great for us, being a 30-something couple who have spent many years living in up-and-coming areas in East London, I would suggest that this may not be the best area for a older couple who are not use to edgier areas. We felt completely safe at all times, its by no means a bad area, but it is 'on-the-up' so you get a real mixture of cultures and energy. Its very real - just want we wanted, but it may not be for everyone.

Transport links couldn't be better - 15 mins to Williamsburg, 20 mins to downtown Manhattan and 30 mins to Upper sides. $20 taxi ride home from Soho and $35 - $40 from the airport.

We would 100% recommend this apartment to any of our friends who are travelling to NYC.

Thanks Alison and Dane for being such amazing hosts!
