Brett is a wonderful and welcoming host. In the run up to the trip he responded quickly to messages and was always helpful. We arrived fairly late and Brett waited for us and was happy to chat and give us lots of local information on our arrival. Brett’s place is well located to enjoy both Brooklyn and Manhattan with the local subway stop very close to the apartment (just make sure to catch the local train there, not the express!). There’s a lot of hustle and bustle outside the apartment in the mornings but you have to appreciate that you’re in a very busy city and it’s all part of the experience! The apartment itself is very comfortable with great amenities (USB sockets by the bed so no need for adaptors!). My top local tip is to go to Peaches for some soul food - on Wednesdays they have live music! We will be recommending Brett’s place to friends who travel to NYC and we wouldn’t hesitate to book again for ourselves.
