After spending six days in New York, I have to say the city exceeded all of my expectations (which were high). A huge contributor was the space we stayed in and our hosts Bernado and Andresa. Williamsburg is certainly an awesome place to stay, the apartment is within walking distance of the L line and a number of amazing cafes and restaurants. Bernado's home is gorgeous and offers amazing views across to the manhattan skyline. The private bathroom was a bonus as was the hammock on the balcony. I couldn't recommend staying here enough, it was absolutely perfect.
