lucien's apartment is perfectly located in brooklyn, public transportation is just down the block with direct access to manhattan in 15mn. the neighborhood is quiet and safe, you can find some of the best restaurants and bars in nyc (rucola, battersby, la vera…). Many grocery stores are available (union market, trader joes, pacific green… ) and even a farmers market on saturday and sunday. the apartment itself is a little museum, filled with beautiful pieces by contemporary and emerging artists, curated by lucien himself. the bed is comfortable with fresh sheets, there is a bose station with speakers, a large sofa, a scandinavian cabinet. it's decorated with taste and elegance. the bathroom is small but spotless and has a bathtub for relaxing session after a long day of work or visit. the kitchen is large fully equipped (coffee machine, toaster, rice cooker, blender and juicer) and clean, with a massive wooden dinner table and a beautiful view on the garden of the invisible dog arts center (lucien is the director and founder of this nyc institution ask him for a private tour). From the booking to the check in, everything went perfectly smoothly. in addition, there were fresh flowers and a very thoughtful welcome gift. lucien is a marvelous host, his place is certainly unique. Ill come back and highly recommend it.
