This little apartment is a rare gem, and as it has a very cosy and homely vibe! The neighbourhood is unbelievable and the location is also amazing for NYC!
About Larissa, she is a wonderful host and a lovely human! I had a few issues with the place in the beginning, minor ones, and she was very quick to respond and participate in helping me get settled not only in the house, but also in New York city.
I would say to anyone who needs a little sanctuary in NYC/Brooklyn, this is the place, and come in understanding that this place has many journeys of Larissa and other travellers who have given their energy to this place.
Its not easy to find a cosy place in NYC and someone who is not trying to do business through AirBNB. This is about being a member within of a community of global homes that want to share their living space with visitors. This apartment definitely fits the bill.
