My wife and I were looking for a nice place to stay for a few days in New York at a reasonable price as staying in Manhattan hotels was outside of our budget. Ranny's (the host) apartment, in Brooklyn, came up high on the list with lots of great previous ratings. We booked on the back of this and the experience staying here certainly didn't disappoint. Here are a few highlights:
- Ranny is an excellent host. He is friendly and very helpful and was excellent in getting everything sorted for us at check in.
- Ranny's communication is excellent and he was always on hand to help when we messaged him with a question.
- The apartment's location is much better than it may initially seem to a visitor to NYC. It is 5-10 mins walk from a Subway station (the 3 line) and you can be into most parts of Manhattan in less than 1 h. This for me was very much worth it given how much one would typically pay for a Manhattan hotel.
- The accommodation was very clean, the bedroom was comfortable and a good size. Amenities such as coffee maker are also provided in the kitchen.
We wish we could rate this more than the maximum 5 stars as it was a really great stay. Highly recommended!
