This was one of the best airbnb experiences we've had. It was more like visiting a friend or family member than renting a space. From a warm welcome to a fond farewell and everything in between, Eric was a wonderful host. He has thought of almost everything a visitor to New York might need and he had great advice on how to navigate the city and things to see. We were traveling with an infant and he went the extra mile to arrange a portable crib. He even had special detergent for baby clothes. And little touches, like USB chargers in the wall, made a big difference day to day. The best thing about the flat, other than the very comfortable beds, was the backyard. The outside space was beautiful and a real rare find in a Brooklyn airbnb. We sat out there everyday with coffees. It was a wonderful start to the day. Eric was always available when we needed him and made us feel very welcome. He has clearly put a lot of love and effort into renovating the flat and it comes across when you're staying there. The space itself is a home away from home with plenty of room for a family. There were three of us and we even had visitors and there was plenty of space to sleep everyone. The whole place is clean, comfortable and very cool, right down to the old boom-box adapted to work as a bluetooth speaker and the reading nook by the second bed. The location is perfect for exploring Brooklyn and less than an hour into the city. We appreciated being able to get into Manhattan but then being able to retreat to the comfort of a quiet Brooklyn neighborhood with great local cafes and shops. Williamsburg is also a short ride away and we went there frequently. All in all, this was an excellent experience. We had plenty of room to feel comfortable, a completely stocked kitchen where we could cook our own meals and a bathroom with a great shower and big tub where we could relax at the end of the day. The TV came ready with cable, netflix, all that stuff. The internet was perfect, even with multiple devices connected. Eric was great at communicating with us and restocked anything we needed, from nespresso pods to toilet paper. And even though we left dirty dishes in the sink when we were rushing for our flight, he came down to help us with our bags and give us a final farewell. Sorry about that, Eric! And thank you so much for a brilliant New York experience. We'd gladly recommend this flat to friends and family.
