I just returned from a wonderful stay at Catherine's Williamsburg apartment. The apartment is as beautifully appointed as it appears in the pictures and was actually more spacious than I expected. The apartment was clean and welcoming. The location is perfect. Restaurants, shops, groceries and more are just outside her door. The subway line for the L train (which whisks you into Manhattan in no time) is just around the corner. I easily walked to McCarren Park and Greenpoint from Catherine's place. The neighborhood is quiet and felt very safe. Catherine was a great host. She was very flexible to my late arrival. I would definitely stay again!
