When I was looking for a place to stay for my teenage daughter and myself on our very first trip to New York this year in October, I knew I wanted to stay in Brooklyn, as some friends had told me, how cool this borough was. And I had no idea...
Upon finding Ainslie's and John's house here on AirBnB, I knew THIS is where I wanted to stay with my daughter. I had a really good feeling and booked.
Upon arrival, we were greeted by John, he explained everything to us in their beautiful home and also gave us the first instructions how to get around in Brooklyn, where to take the metro, where to find a supermarket etc. We met Ainslie at night and also immediately felt comfortable with her, too.
The room we stayed in was big and comfortable and the bed big enough for the two of us. We had a private sink in our room, too, which was nice. We also loved the bathroom, spacey and with natural light from above.
THIS is the place where you want to stay, when exploring crazy New York. The area is very nice and chill, metro is near, grocery shopping also. It's always a relief when you come from the hustle & bustle from the Manhattan area and arrive back at Prospect Parc.
Ainslie and John were perfect hosts, we had really great talks over preparing dinner or at breakfast time. Even if both of them are really busy people, they always found time for a chat and had tons of insights and tipps.
To us Ainslie's and John's place was "home away from home" and we are definitely
coming back to explore more of NY.
Thank you so much, Ainslie and John, for making our first stay in NY so extra special. We are looking forward to seeing you again!
