I just got back from a 4 night stay in NYC at Ravanna & Jetta's location and it was absolutely wonderful! I didn't meet Ravanna directly, as it was his brother Jetta who was taking care of my stay, but let me tell you, he could not have been a more warm, lovely, and hospitable host! I was travelling with my parent's and my dad managed to get the sink stopper stuck in the kitchen sink (of course) - Jetta was 100% understanding and instantly fixed it! When I arrived he also gave me some great tips on where to eat and pick up things like groceries and alcohol, which was really helpful (I needed a good drink after a long day of travelling!).

The apartment itself is exactly as it looks in the photos! Everything was freshly cleaned when we arrived, and the comfortable beds were a welcoming site after my parents were delayed up in Toronto for a number of hours. The apartment is EXTREMELY quiet, and we never heard anyone else in the building, even though we were told there was a group staying below us, which was absolutely wonderful.

Everything about booking and staying at this location was quick, easy, and very pleasant. I would highly recommend this location to anyone who doesn't want to be in Manhattan and is looking for a more "local" feel to their stay in NYC. With that being said, my parents and I found travelling up or down Bedford (instead of Nostrand) was much better, especially at night to and from the subway lines. The A line was closed for most of the time that we were there, so we ended up taking the G line from Bedford-Nostrand and then connecting to the L line at Lorimer into Manhattan for most of the time we were there and actually really enjoyed that commute, as it allows you to jump off at Williamsburg (Bedford stop on the L line) on your way into Manhattan!

I hope to be back in NYC in the next few years and would feel great about staying at this location again :)
