We loved our stay here. The room was clean, more spacious than the photos indicated, very warm and the bed was amazingly comfortable. We had all the creature comforts of home with a well stocked kitchen and extra blankets and towels stowed conveniently in the cupboard. The location is also great with it being close to many of the train stations and positioned in what felt like the outskirts of Williamsburg. It's not right in the thick of Williamsburg, but we liked that as it meant we were more likely to explore some of the other cool areas nearby, like Green Point and Brooklyn Heights. But in terms of walking distance, it is most closely located to the main part of Williamsburg than anywhere else and was a very easy walk to the main streets.

In terms of the hosts, Allen and Irina, we found them to be hands-off but ready and there to help us when we needed them - so this suited us perfectly as we liked having our autonomy during our stay. Irina welcomed us when we first arrived and was very flexible with accommodating our arrival time that had shifted slightly. She also helped with printing some tickets for us while we were there and let us store our luggage in an adjoining shed after check-out - which was super appreciated as we weren't flying out until the evening! The only small point of feedback we have is that on one occasion we could not get the key to work in the door so we had to ring the bell to get back into the room. Allen came down to let us in but wasn't very friendly with us. It was after 10am in the morning and we hadn't lost the key, we just couldn't get it to work in the door, so we felt a bit put off by the manner we were met with.

With everything said, this place is clean, cozy, homely and well located for those wanting to explore the many areas of Brooklyn. We would definitely recommend for others to stay here.
