I loved Michelle’s place from the moment I walked in. It’s an older building with a cool little elevator. The apartment itself was so much larger than I expected for a studio in Brooklyn. It was bright and airy and just felt so quintessential New York. My husband and I stayed there together and it was much more breathable than a hotel room. The decor was my sense of style, which added to comfort for me. I loved pretending for the weekend like it was ours.
The neighborhood was quiet, yet super convenient with a 24-hour corner store, a good coffee shop and a subway station all a stones throw away. We were there for an event in Clinton Hill, but were also able to easily throw in a a couple of trips to Manhattan and an awesome walk through Prospect Heights and Prospect Park.
Probably most importantly, Michelle was super responsive. I contacted her multiple times before and during the trip (a side effect of me not super planning out this trip, not because of anything on Michelle’s end) and she always responded quickly and helpfully. I would absolutely stay here again.
