Ben & Giorgia's place is super cool! It's an apartment on the ground floor with tiny windows only and low ceilings. But it's very unique and we loved their interior style!!! Also the backyard is great for having breakfast outside or a last drink at night. The apartment itself was very tidy and clean!
Since it is located next to a much frequented street it is not super quiet, you can hear the cars and trucks all the time, also during the night. NYC in general is quite a noisy city. But for us that was no problem, since we're not light sleepers.
The next L train station is right around the corner, 1 min walk, the perfect und fastest connection to Manhattan! Also there are a couple of nice bars, restaurants and 24/7 delis around.
Ben & Giorgia themselves were super nice, organized and really helpful. We checked ourselves in which was easy because they sent us detailed instructions in advance. Living together with them was very chill. We didn't meet a lot because we were busy the whole day but we could chat from time to time and they had some useful tips for us. Their dog Skye is very cute and nice!
We loved staying at Ben & Giorgia's and would definitely come back another time!
