We stayed at Josandra's place for the past week and it really was a home away from home.
Check in was great and easy, our flight actually arrived early and we got to the apartment at 3:30, the cleaner was cleaning but allowed us to come in and make ourselves at home, a great touch after such a long flight. She was friendly and talkative.
On Air BnB the photographs are sometimes misleading but the photographs of Josandra's place don't actually do the apartment justice. The apartment has 2 big bedrooms, a big living area and a decent sized bathroom. There was 3 of us stopping but you could easily fit 4-5 people in here and still be comfortable.
Everything was clean and towels and bedding were perfect, it's got to be one of the comfiest beds I've ever slept in. The living area has a 42" Samsung TV with Cable TV which is again a superb touch.
The location is great, you live like a local and it takes you 25 minutes to get into Manhattan via the J Line from Halsey Street, there is a store at the end of the road for all of your shopping and the bus is only a short bus ride away from the Barclays Center on the B26 bus. You can buy a MTA pass for 7 days for 31 dollars, this covers the public busses and subways.
There's only one con, you don't control the heating. The first night we were boiling hot and sweating but then after that we were cold on many nights, this was our only complaint with the apartment, it would be great if we could control the heating to our leisure but this isn't possible. We did message Josandra and she informed me that they are looking at fixing/upgrading the heating system. Once this is fixed it would be the perfect place.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in NYC and if we are ever back in the area then we will definitely stop here.
