Clarina’s place is even better than what you see in the photos, the Airbnb profile doesn’t do it justice! I wasn’t expecting much from the neighborhood, but Gowanus is up-and-coming, with lots of nice little gems, like Ugly Baby and Pig Beach for food and Other Half Brewery for going out. Plus, it takes less than a half hour to get to downtown by metro.
However, there’s something even better about staying at Clarina’s place than the amazing space, and that is Clarina herself! Clarina is a genuinely good and intelligent human being brimming with knowledge, creativity, and kindness. Her art covers the walls and leaves a lasting impression with its audacity and sheer creative energy. If you’re lucky, you will get a chance to make a true friend on a personal level.
Also, be sure to check the guest book for some heartwarming notes from past visitors, and don’t forget to leave some words yourself!
I have no doubts that whoever will stay here will love their experience.
