My partner and I were made most welcome by Luis. Our flight was delayed over an hour and a half and as a consequence we were quite late arriving. Luis was still there to greet us. He had prior to this sent detailed instructions as to how to get to his home.
Luis and his partner spent several hours taking us around parts of Brooklyn and we shared cooking meals with them.
Our room had a typical fold out couch in their lounge room. It included hanging space, drawers and a television. This was closed off from the kitchen dining area. We shared a bathroom. Location was near to trains and buses, in a quiet but yet to be gentrified area of Brooklyn. We felt safe and walked to shops for groceries and wine.
