Veronique and her cat are great hosts. Even though we didn't interact that much with her because we spend most of our time walking out the city, she was very open to questions and she explained to us in detail the apartment rules once we arrived to her place (i.e. not use the AC on High or move the cat litter from the shower.) The place is really close to a metro station that took us to most of the touristic places of the city without changing the line; F or J lines took us to both Uptown and Downtown very fast, Little Italy and Chinatown are walking-distance and the Williamsburg Bridge is just a couple blocks away, so you can walk directly to Brooklyn's heart. There are A LOT of great places to eat (Kat's Deli is just about few blocks away from the apartment!!) and for coffee lovers, there's a Blue Bottle Coffee shop right next to the building entrance. My girlfriend and I agree that this is a good if you are just looking for a place to crush.
