Williamsburg for the win! If you are looking to stay in New York, this is the place to be. The neighborhood is fashionable, artsy and cool. Great places to eat and drink. The apartment is big, bright, nice looking, amazingly located, with a super cool rooftop from which you can see Manhattan. Underground line close and well connected. Small negative notes: the kitchen is not fully equipped, so it's ok to cook basic stuff but don't rely completely if you're planning to cook a lot, check before; one of the rooms has no window and a ceiling fan, so when it's hot is not the best place to sleep. Overall, great stay for my working + holiday staying, really happy to have chosen this apartment!
