Kathleen was a fabulous hostess ! She was very gracious and kind. I adored her positive energy . She was always available for help with ideas for activities, interesting places to visit, and places to dine. She has a vast knowledge of the rich history of Brooklyn as well as much of the rest of the boroughs New York. Her home could not be more conveniently located to subway and bus stops, and she is an expert on the best ways to utilize this most efficient system to get around. The room was very clean and spacious and full of light, just like the photo. I was very comfortable there. It was much more like being at home than in an impersonal hotel. It was also very quiet at night, not the hustle and bustle of Manhattan. But it is also very easy an convenient to go to Manhattan from here if you like. It was lovely to walk around the beautiful neighborhood of old brownstones as well as stay in one. There are fabulous shops and restaurants within walking distance as well as the park ,museum, and botanical gardens. I enjoyed getting to know the neighborhood with Kathleen's guidance. I could not have picked a more delightful place to stay, nor a more delightful hostess! I can't say enough nice things. You will see what I mean if you go.
I now know the best place to stay in Brooklyn the next time I go there.
