Staying at Alden and Illich's place provides every opportunity to experience the rich culture of Williamsburg, with subway lines that can have you in Manhattan in 10 minutes. Alden and Illich themselves are wonderful and a pleasure to meet. From the start Alden was very easy to communicate with and very organized. The pictures do not do the apartments very clean and thoughtful interior design justice. It is clear that Alden Illich invested time in curating a beautiful home for themselves. Their cat Pancho would give any dog person a run for there money and makes the place feel like a home. Having stayed to visit friends from college for NYE I was provided with everything I needed as well as great recommendations on places I hadn't tried in Williamsburg before. You couldn't find a better spot or better hosts in Williamsburg!
