Guillermo was a great host and was very attentive when needed. He was really chatty and eager to share local knowledge, especially about the art scene in the area. The flat itself is lovely, even better than the pictures. We absolutely loved it, it had that New York loft feel but in a basement! Very tastefully decorated in a creative artsy way, spacious and cosy at the same time, a lovely place to stay. It was immaculately clean. Despite the subzero temperatures we were never cold in the apartment. The boiler can be a little noisy (a constant hum when it turns on), so earplugs might be helpful for light sleepers. The area is amazing, full of lovely cafes, bars and restaurants, replete with street art; it's an area brimming with creativity whilst still maintaining an industrial feel, which we loved. 983 and Forrest Point were two of our fave places to have a drink and a bite to eat.The L Train is 5 minutes or so away which gets you into Manhattan very quickly. We would definitely stay again.
