The space was beautiful & I really enjoyed staying in the Columbia St Waterfront area, which has great local spots, a spectacular view of downtown Manhattan and is close to the run/walk/bike trail along the water.
Nicole was a fantastic live-in host, with recommendations on the closest grocery, best coffee, etc. The room and house were spotless, with many thoughtful touches, lovely plants, and a fully stocked kitchen. I stayed for 3 wks while looking for an apt in Brooklyn & Nicole's place was a reliable workspace during the weekdays & serenity between apt viewings. I highly recommend.
