I spent two nights at Patricia's and Cherisse's place. Everything was exactly as described, the hosts communicated with me everything in advance, gave me precise indication so I could find the place easily and I was warmly welcomed at their place. Although I had all I needed with me, I would not have lacked anything there as Patricia and Cherisse made sure guests have everything they need. The room was clean to my extremely high standard, there was space for my luggage, drawers and hangers for clothes, etc. and I was surrounded by the hosts' own artworks which give to the flat a very spacial touch. The place is situated close to (less than 10 minutes walking) subway lines going directly and quickly to Manhattan. And Brooklyn has of course a lot to offer. Patricia and Cherisse were also generous with tips and recommendations. We did not see much of each other, which is the only sad side as I would have loved to get to know them more, but New York is too big for such a short visit.
