I spent almost 2 months at Melinda’s house and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone willing to visit New York.
The neighborhood is still real Brooklyn and everything you might need is right around the corner. The building is surprisingly quiet and the private room is really big and comfortable.
Melinda is a great host: she gave me plenty information before my arrival, she keeps common areas very tidy and clean, and she is very respectful with personal space (even though she will help if asked).
It’s been a great experience, I would repeat it without a doubt. Thank you very much!
