Our stay in Brooklyn by Ryan and Ellen was throughout a pleasant experience. The area is great - it is relaxed, there are many good places to eat&drink, and it is also quiet in the night (which is a blessing for light sleepers). The room is very neat, we particularly enjoyed the view of trees from the window, the comfortable bed and Netflix, as well as the independent entrance, which makes it easy to come and go as you please. All communication with our hosts went smoothly, and we would not hesitate to come back and stay with them at another visit to NYC. Thank you, Ellen and Ryan!
