Clarina's apartment was perfect for our month long stay. The interior is thoughtfully furnished and arranged, complete with all amenities one would need to truly feel at home. Best of all, Clarina was a kind and welcoming host, always available should we need anything. She even offered her storage space for some of our bulkier items which was really helpful. We live in Brooklyn so are familiar with the Gowanus neighborhood, but we enjoyed getting to know it even more. It is an area full of quiet, tree lined streets and lots of restaurants and shops and no more than a 20 min subway ride into lower Manhattan. We could not recommend this apartment more and feel very lucky to have found it in the first place and gotten to know Clarina at the same time.
