We enjoyed our stay in Williamsburg with Giorgia & Ben. The apartment is as advertised, but surprisingly light for a basement space. The proximity to Lormier metro makes it easy to travel across Manhattan and we took full advantage of this during our stay. Ben & Giorgia are experienced and laid back hosts. They struck a perfect balance between being friendly and accessible while also allowing us to do our own thing. Skye the dog will announce everyone's arrival into the apartment. The trick is to give him a bit of attention and he quickly calms down :-). Overall a pleasant spot to stay.
