We’ve just spent a week at Gary’s and the experience couldn’t have been better. The room is exactly the same as described: beautiful, warm, comfortable and full of small gestures (bathrobes were definitely a plus!). Even though we knew there were people in the house upstairs, we were left to do our own things, and we appreciated the privacy. We did meet Gary on our last day, though, and he was as warm and welcoming as we’d imagined, and kind enough to let us leave our bags during the afternoon, before going to the airport. The neighborhood is definitely a plus: Park Slope is adorable, close enough to the city but also calm, and a stone’s throw from all Brooklyn’s not so touristy areas. We’d definitely stay at Gary’s again.
