This was our first experience with airbnb and we're extremely pleased with it. Eric was a perfect host and the apartment is amazing and very tastefully decorated. Our flight arrived late and he waited for us. Communication was very easy.
Neighborhood is quiet and ok, we didn't have any problem at all, we felt safe even taking the subway late at night. It's very easy to get to Manhattan. Williamsburg is only 3-4 stations away.
We highly recommend this apartment for anyone looking for a place in NY. It's a very good value for money.
