Just 2 words to describe Chris: super host :)
He's such a helpful and open-minded guy, we really felt like home. The private room is spacious and very clean, as the appartment in general. The neighborhood is little noisy overnight (specially with the trucks) but Brooklyn is a lovely place to stay, and it's very close to Lower Manhattan (10 mn with the C train). If we had to go back in NY, we wouldn't hesitate to live at Chris' home again. So, don't hesitate people!
