Ray was extremely helpful, welcoming, and respectful. He gave us tons of suggestions for where to eat and what activities to do. The neighborhood was so chill and really allowed for us to slow down from the busy pace of the city. Very cool bars and restaurants are scattered within a few blocks. If we had questions, Ray was available whenever we needed him and ensured we felt at home throughout our stay.
Although the listing states it's a private room, we essentially had the entire floor to ourselves for the whole trip. Ray gave us plenty of notice for when he was going to be in and out of the common space; he was very respectful of our privacy. I highly recommend Ray's and Melissa's to laid back travelers looking to experience Brooklyn with easy subway access to Manhattan. We'll be back!!
