Ben & Giorgia were very nice hosts. They were cool, easygoing and opened to help us in whatever we needed, always in a sweet way. I was sharing the room with a friend and we soon realized that our taste was not very different from Ben & Giorgia's, which made it easy to spend time together, get hints on restaurants, bars and coffe shops and also listen to music at the house: it didn't matter who was choosing the songs, they were never bad.
The room was cozy and for us who spent an entire month it was very good to have a nice place to rest in the cold days that we didn't want to go out. The apartment was very nice and ridiculously close to the L line, that takes you straight to Manhattan in less than 10 minutes. In other words, it's the perfect spot to stay in Williamsburg.
Staying in Brooklyn was also a nice experience. It's a neighborhood so interesting that many days we just decided not to go to Manhattan, and spent hours wandering around, going to the movies, eating in nice places or going to art opening and parties.
Well, we definitely recommend the apartment and would stay there again.
PS: Skyee is the nicest dog, very cool companion to the cold winter days.
