We are a young couple and stayed in Eric's apartment in Brooklyn for 9 nights. The apartment is well kept, has all the amenities you need and is just lovely. It is obvious from the moment you walk in that Eric has put his heart into decorating this place. It takes a while to get to Manhattan, but the apartment is quite close to subway stations and Brooklyn has a lot to offer as well.
Eric is a great host, friendly, responsive and extremely helpful. As first-timers to NYC we were particularly grateful that he sent us information about the area and how to get to the apartment before our departure and was there when we arrived to tell us everything we needed to know. Eric goes the extra mile to make sure his guests have a good stay (e.g. he stocked the fridge so that we did not have to go grocery shopping on the first night).
A wholehearted recommendation from us!
