Mary and Josh made me feel like an honored guest! The apartment was beautiful and immaculate, the mattress was divine, the view from the bedroom was gorgeous, and the special touches - from roses in the living room to apples in the kitchen - were lovely and so thoughtful. I had two friends - both with extensive backgrounds in merchandising - visit me at the apartment (and in Mary's kitchen), and both commented on Mary's amazing "eye" - everything was beyond lovely. I've been to Bed-Stuy many, many times over the past 15 years, and I've never experienced such an oasis of tranquility as Mary and Josh's home. But most important were Mary and Josh themselves, and their lovely family... of which I now feel a part. Mary and Josh are perfect hosts in every way imaginable, and more than that they are simply delightful people - warm, thoughtful, generous... and funny! I visit Bed-Stuy often, and I look forward to many more glasses of wine at their kitchen counter. I can't recommend this apartment (and family) enough!!!
