Alex and Q maintain a very neat and tidy apartment. The decor is simple and clean yet eclectic. The bedroom is decent in size and the bed was very comfortable (very important). There is a shared bathroom that was always available.
The water pressure in the shower was strong. Alex makes sure that you are equipped with nice, clean towels.
The common space is spacious and you would have access to the stove in the kitchen. There is a large outside area with Manhattan skyline views! We hung out with Alex and Q and it was super relaxed and easy.
The Red Hook area is such a cool neighborhood. The demographics of the neighborhood are a melting pot. Red Hook is an unpolished diamond. There aren’t many neighborhoods like it in NYC anymore. 10 minutes walk to the subway and bus stops all around.
The apartment is above an ironworks business so there is a clang and a bang every now and then but what would you expect. It only happens periodically during the business day but we were out until the evening most days.
You are in close proximity to some great shops, restaurants and breweries. Alex and Q had some good tips on where to eat.
