I spent 3 nights in Kathleens home and was very pleased! The room was small and narrow, but the bed was very comfortable and the room well equipped.
Kathleen is a very sympathetic, friendly and helpful person. She was a great help to get advices for cultural events and much more.
Kathleens house is situated in a friendly neighborhood. Just around a corner is the station for Metro 2 and 3, a very good cafe (Hungry Ghost) and some nice restaurants. In less than 15 minutes you are in Manhattan.
A station of Citibike is in Dean Street (5 minutes), a bike-shop of Ride Brooklyn with bikes to rent in Bergen Street (3 minutes).
I enjoyed my short visit in New York and in Kathleens house very much. In my opinion Brooklyn and specially Kathleens house are a perfect place to stay and discover New York.
I´m sure, I will come back to her for another visit!
