We couldn't have asked for better hosts than Kathryn and Mike! We communicated exclusively with Kathryn and the communication was excellent. For example, she was proactive in reaching out to us so she could meet us upon our initial arrival. She was also great in letting us know that we truly could contact her regarding anything at any time during our stay.
Upon our initial arrival we were given a tour of the apartment which was easy and short, but detailed enough so we pretty much had zero questions about anything when finished. Kathryn was very helpful in suggesting some nearby places to get coffee and food, as well as some places that we could visit.
The apartment itself is absolutely beautiful and perfect for two people! The bathroom is very spacious and very clean, the AC unit was more than enough to cool the apartment with outside temperatures of almost 100 degrees, the bed was very comfortable with plenty of room, and all in all there is a great relaxing vibe while being there.
The neighborhood overall is pretty quiet and quaint. Within a short walk (10 minutes tops) are train station C, various coffe shops and eating places that are authentic and original, and anything else you may want or need. It is important to note that we felt very safe at all times within the immediate neighborhood as well as anywhere within Bed-Stuy for that matter (even when coming home at 3:30am from visiting long-time friends). We also felt truly comfortable in coming and going as we pleased without any questions or hassles of any such kind.
We would highly recommend this apartment to anyone staying for the weeknd or a few days (if more than this then you may want an apartment that would have its own kitchen).
