I just spent 2 weeks in Alex's apartment and loved every minute of it.
This is certainly owed to the perfect location in my favourite part of Brooklyn, Fort Greene, and the lovely set-up of her apartment.
But above all it is because of Alex herself who is the perfect host. She was there during the entire time working during the daytime, and I experienced her as a most pleasant room mate: Respecting of my privacy as a guest but always available if I had a question.
On the day of departure I had a late flight out, so Alex was nice enough to let me do a late check-out.
As Alex's guest I had the run of the apartment including some fridge space for my yogurt. So her place really became a home away from home for me.
To top it all off Alex's two cats are absolutely sweet, friendly and simply cute.
I wholeheartedly recommend Alex's place to anybody unless they are allergic to cats. This would unfortunately mean that they have to miss out on a great New York experience.
I would definitely stay there again. - Thank you for everything, Alex!
