We didn't spend much time with Gordon, but during our stay he was really funny, friendly and helpful. We had a great time in his home during the 4 days we spent in Brooklyn. The neighborhood was nice and buzzy, and most people were friendly. We found the shops and the metro easily. Our room was nice and cozy, and we loved the AC which came in handy during the hot nights. The kitchen was well-equiped. If we have the opportunity to go back to Brooklyn next year, we will definitely want to say at his place.
