Edgar's apartment is fantastic value for money - a really gorgeous space in a fantastic location. It is a 2 minute walk from 3 major subway lines, as well as both the grunge/art-chic of Gowanus, and the leafy gorgeousness of Park Slope. I stayed at the apartment for 2 months while working on a project in Brooklyn and loved every moment of it. My only slight gripe was that the apartment has a window at the top of one wall (next to the front door) leading into the downstairs apartment. It's too high up to see though, but means that noise and light travel between the two spaces very easily. As such I was having to constantly monitor my own noise, and also had to sometimes endure noise from the young children downstairs while I was trying to work. However, most other guests will probably not be staying there for such a long time and will be out exploring New York for much of the time, so I'm sure this won't be a problem for most guests. Edgar was a great host and extremely fast to respond to inquiries, despite being overseas at the time we were communicating. I really hope to stay here again next time I'm in NYC.
