I don't travel often and have only used Airbnb 3 times but Miya's apt is definitely the best so far. It was quite spacious and clean and most importantly, very lovely. It was very cold and windy in New York when we were there but the apartment was warm. And the bed was huge, comfortable and again, very warm. We didn't get to meet Miya as when we arrived in New York, she's already left. But she left the keys to her neighbor and arranged it very well and was easy to reach over Email and phone the whole time. The location was also good - only one minute away from subway stations. All the places we planned to go were in Manhattan but commute had not been a problem to us at all and from Miya's apartment it was only 20 minutes. The neighborhood seemed nice too and there were good restaurants and food stores just minutes away too. So basically living there means getting the tastes of both Brooklyn and Manhattan. If we are going to visit New York again some day in the future and decide to stay in Brooklyn, we will definitely stay in Miya's apt again. (if she allows us. :P )
