This was our first experience with Airbnb, and Shelley made it a great one! Cozy is a perfect description for this apartment. There were many little touches that helped us feel welcome right away.

The kitchen was equipped with plenty of supplies, including basic pantry staples and spices. We saved a lot of money by cooking our own meals. And there was a nice variety of teas to sample.

The bathroom was stocked with toiletries and soft towels. The shower was hot and had perfect water pressure.

The bedroom was a super-quiet and comfortable sanctuary. We appreciated that after a day of walking around the busy city.

Best of all was our host, Shelley. She was very friendly and accommodating. When we booked the room, she provided us with a guide to the apartment, as well as her personal recommendations for local food and activities. And she has imbued the apartment with design details that showcase her unique style of both Brooklyn and Caribbean influences.

It's a short walk to the subway and bus lines, and we were able to get all over the city from there. However, there was plenty to do nearby. We spent a couple of days just exploring Brooklyn.

We would definitely recommend staying with Shelley. We hope to visit the city, and Shelley's cozy apartment, again soon!
