Renée was the consummate hostess -- she welcomed me at the apartment, as I arrived, bedraggled and jetlagged, from the airport, and was unfailingly sunny and helpful throughout the stay. The place is marvelously cozy and comfortable, on a quiet and community-feeling block of BedStuy brownstones. Everything in the place worked fantastically well, and Renée responded to every request promptly and helpfully. I couldn't have asked for more!
