Laura's loft is AMAZING. I have stayed in different airbnbs in Brooklyn and I would definitely recommend Laura's. The neighborhood is so nice, very hip and very industrial with lofts everywhere and a lot of young people. As a girl in her early 20s I felt totally safe and loved it. Laura's loft is a five minute walk away from the L line that will take you to union square in 10 minutes and you can catch any line from there. Also very easy to get anywhere in Brooklyn. The loft itself is SO nice, the view of the manhattan skyline is amazing, it's clean and very cozy. The room is full of natural light. We've only seen Laura once as it was Christmas time but she was very nice and welcoming. If you are looking for a nice place to stay where you feel comfortable and can explore manhattan/brooklyn easily Laura's place is for you ! Also don't forget to check Roberta's, it's a few blocks away and the best pizza you'll have.
