This was my first Airbnb experience, and it was great! Matt was very quick to respond to my many questions before arrival, and everything from check-in to check-out ran very smoothly. The apartment was clean and comfortable, and it was in a great location for us to walk around. There are lots of little shops and restaurants nearby, and it was pretty close to some subway stations too.
We were in New York for several days, but only stayed here for our last two nights. We had a few hours between the check-out time from our previous location and our check-in time here, during which we were permitted to store our luggage at Matt's tattoo shop near the apartment... we were very grateful to explore Greenpoint and Williamsburg luggage-free! We visited the bar downstairs during our downtime, and the bartender gave us some recommendations for places to eat/drink/have fun. When we got the keys and went up to the apartment, there was also a binder from Matt with similar recommendations.
Matt warned us that there may be loud music/noise from the bar below the apartment, but this was hardly noticeable when we were there. You can however hear the upstairs neighbor. This didn't bother us, but it's worth noting.
Overall - we would definitely stay here again!
