We stayed over a month at David’s apartment and we had an overall very good experience there. As some other reviewers have also said, our first intention was to stay at Williamsburg, but we’re happy we finally gave Fort Greene/Clinton Hill a try. We’ve really enjoyed this neighborhood, which is easy to live at and is mainly quiet but at the same time has no shortage of lively spots.
The location of the apartment is superb, it is very well connected by subway with central Manhattan (20 min aprox) and with other major spots in Brooklyn.
The apartment is bright, spacious and furnished with taste. It is a little more ran down than the pictures suggest but still feels cozy and has a cool vibe to it. Air con and internet TV are sure pluses to it.
David was an attentive host. Easily reachable by e-mail, he was always prompt to answer to our questions and to take care of any unexpected issues that would occur. Far away though he was, he carefully handled a troubling situation involving a cockroaches burst into the kitchen and within a few days everything was back to normality. He is someone you can trust.
All in all, we made a home for ourselves out of David’s place and would love to stay there again should the oportunity arise.
