Timo's place was perfect. We did not meet our host but were able to easily access the apartment on our own. The room was comfortable, private, and clean. The AC in the bedroom was definitely appreciated in the heat of the NY summer! Timo's notes and tips on things like how to use the shower and other appliances, and which restaurants and bars he likes in the area were appreciated. The area was safe and not too noisy - ear plugs were provided but we did not need them. The subway was easily accessible but we walked to most of our destinations. We didn't get to take advantage of the full kitchen, dining area or living room much because we had a lot going on, but next time we plan a trip to Brooklyn we hope we can stay here again and take advantage of the space. Thanks for making our little getaway a success, Timo!
