Chris's place is spacious, clean, with helpful notes about how things work and about interesting places nearby. One of the many nice touches is that the bathroom has MANY places to hang things. Chris himself is friendly and helpful, and he responds super quickly to any texts. The location is great: at the foot of Williamsburg Bridge (easy walk to Lower East Side of Manhattan), a couple of blocks from the water taxi (fun!), an easy walk to the very best part of Williamsburg (food, pubs), and yet on a quiet street (great for sleeping). An added benefit is cultural: the place is in the Hassidic Jewish district of Williamsburg, which makes for fascinating people watching and culture studying. All in all, a great place at a very reasonable price.
