Gary’s place was just perfect. The bedroom was so spacious and beautifully set up with a large comfortable bed & lots of little extra touches including a variety of tea and coffee available and a book telling us a bit about Gary and his family and full of tips for places to eat and shop nearby. The bathroom along the hall was lovely and clean with a great, powerful hot shower – perfect given we were visiting during the crazy cold snap over new year. We really liked having access to our space with our own private entrance, and Gary and his family always made sure they knocked on the door leading down from the rest of the house if they needed to access the laundry area. This made us feel like we had plenty of privacy but we were lucky enough to get to meet Gary once and really enjoyed chatting with him. The location was great – right in the heart of Park Slope with everything you could possibly want food & shopping-wise. We were leaving on a day when there had been a huge dump of snow overnight & lots of flights were cancelled & Gary very kindly offered for us to extend our stay if we needed. We did manage to fly that day but we really appreciated how proactive Gary was in making this offer when he saw the weather. We’d highly recommend staying at Gary’s place & would definitely book it again.
