Jessica and Jason were very helpful hosts. Jessica met us when we moved in and had several great recommendations for food and shopping in the area, including a farmers' market.

The stay was very pleasant throughout. The place was spotless when we moved in and well stocked with clean towels, bed sheets, and kitchenware. There was no intrusive noise from elsewhere in the building or from the street outside. We were lucky to catch some December sunshine and enjoyed having the use of the back garden. There were even some Steely Dan and classical CDs that we played while we were staying there, and various interesting books as well.

The area itself is well situated, with Manhattan a few subway stops away on the M and R lines. It is a safe, ethnically vibrant neighbourhood without the stress and noise of more high-rise areas. I would heartily recommend Jason's and Jessica's apartment to anyone who wants to feel at home for their visit.
