Valeria's place really is a gem. It is full of character and charm. It's also very spacious, clean and has everything you might need -- a fully equipped and modern kitchen, perfectly sized bathroom with a nice bath tub, and air conditioning. Both rooms are beautifully sun-lit during the day, and the apartment is quiet at night. In terms of location it is also perfect -- a 2 minute walk from stunning Prospect Park and a short walk in the other direction to cool cafes, bars and little boutiques. It's also so easy to get into Manhattan!

It was my first experience with Airbnb, and I'm so glad I tried it out.
