A few friends and I visited in June and happened upon Olga's place very shortly after it was listed. We saw the photos and the location and were sold, but I can't begin to describe how much the place exceeded our expectations - easily the best AirBNB I've ever stayed in.
The AirBnB is in a beautiful Brooklyn brownstone. The place is so tastefully decorated in an artistic yet minimalistic way. The amenities are AWESOME - projector in the living room, a closet full of games, kitchen supplies + basic ingredients for cooking, toiletries and a generous amount of towels/washcloths, a printer, an in-unit washer/dryer, and more. Even up until our fourth day there, I was discovering new things about the place I loved.
The place is very spacious - guests have access to two full floors, upstairs bedrooms both have beds which can comfortably fit two plus a pull-out bed. 1.5 baths. One of my favorite parts was the private backyard - it has brand new outdoor furniture, plants, is covered/surrounded by trees, and has beautiful outdoor lights strung across the top. It was such a gorgeous space - an oasis right in the middle of Brooklyn. And, perhaps my favorite part, was the rooftop access.
The area was very safe and quiet, nearby to restaurants & coffee shops, and the A, C, G trains and buses within close walking distance. The door automatically locks and has a door code so if you travel with a group and want to split up, everyone has access to the place any time. The entire place was incredibly clean, along with sheets, blankets, towels, etc. Felt very comfortable during the full visit.
Olga was very personable and responsive, communicated exceptionally for any questions we had, and was kind and empathetic. She's an awesome host and it's very clear how much effort and thought she put into the place to make it the best possible experience for guests. We appreciate so much her opening this space up to guests so they can have a quintessential Brooklyn experience.
I also loved the wall art - made it feel so tasteful, homey, and enhanced the character of an already incredible home.
Thank you Olga!! <3 My friends and I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. I can't recommend the place enough :)
