First off, this is truly an old-school, vintage, true to the awesome and authentic experience of Bushwick. The town has such an impressive history and Steve's place reflects that and honors it. It really isn't for the hotel-going types. You really do need to want to experience the culture of Bushwick and of that side of Brooklyn to stay here. The old school style of the apartment might deter some people because the rooms are all in one line and so if on if his bedroom is locked you have to go out into the hallway of the apartment building to use the restroom. But that wasn't a big deal to me because the apartment building had hardly any foot traffic and we had keys to the place so I have no complaints there. It wasn't a big deal to me.
Steve gave us awesome recommendations. He was so friendly and accommodating. He's cultured in the ways we liked and he was super relaxed when he was there. There is so sort of pressure staying at Steve's place. The place was stylish and tidy and we had all we needed in our bedroom. It was within walking distance of so much great stuff and things to eat, do, and access. And he has an amazing and adorable cat, Reaper, who anyone will enjoy. It was so wonderful having a cat there because I had to leave my own kitties at home for this trip so it helped curb my missing them. His place was also priced really well and easy to get to. I will totally stay at Steve's again next time I'm in New York/Brooklyn for sure!
