Sharon is an absolutely wonderful host, and I would highly recommend a stay at her apartment! I really enjoyed my conversations with Sharon (a shared love of art) and she was very helpful with her knowledge of the local area.
The room itself is warm and inviting with plenty of storage space for clothes and suitcases. Everything was very clean and organised around the rest of the apartment, and I really enjoyed cooking there too. Being able to do laundry in the basement was also a big bonus compared to a lot of other places I liked at.
The Q train is right around the corner so access to Manhattan is incredibly easy, and Prospect Park was a great place to go out for runs around the lake. The grocery store next to the station is also really convenient and very good quality.
I'd be very happy to stay here again whenever I'm next in NY, thanks Sharon!
