Jennifer's apartment was almost exactly as described, and the best part is its location, within walking distance of Williamsburg's great shops, bars and restaurants. As my friend put it, this place is what you would expect in New York - a converted warehouse-style building with an eclectic mix of furnishings and smells inside. It was the right amount of character and space for four friends on a girls' trip, and there are lots of toys and features that would be great for families. But if you need a spotless home, it's probably not the best option. Overall Jennifer was very helpful and responsive, but we did have trouble connecting immediately upon our arrival, which led to a couple hours of waiting in a nearby bar to be let into the house. Once she regained cell service (she was traveling), she was extremely helpful, along with AirBnB, in resolving the issue, and making sure we didn't have any further problems. We are going to be credited our stay for the first night. Judging by the other reviews, I'm sure the lapse in communication was a fluke. I would just be sure to connect with her with plenty of time before your arrival! We really enjoyed our stay in the end.
