Had a great stay at Nicole's. The room is spacious, clean, tastefully-appointed, with almost everything you might need. The apartment is located in a lovely historic Brooklyn neighbourhood with great access to hikes/running along the waterfront (but a bit of a hike from the subway). Nicole also takes care of the place very well and is one of the more tidy/organised hosts I've met! One tiny drawback for me is the room doesn't get much natural light, but if you're in NY you'll probably be spending most of your time out and about anyway.
