My boyfriend and I spent a month in Habitat 101. What we really loved about our place was the view and the open layout. It is perfect for two people. Greenpoint was an amazing location. As well as there being many food spots around, there are many delis and the area is very safe. It is a 10 minute walk to Nassau station and only 15 minutes by walk to Williamsburg (and Bedford Av Station). From there it is very easy to get to Manhattan. Another bonus was the weekly cleaning and laundry facilities downstairs. Vida was a wonderful host and was incredibly responsive and accomodating. For example, our flight was delayed by 12 hours due to a snow storm and she kindly let us check out late in the day. We will definitely come back to Habitat 101 in our future visits to New York.
