Firstly, the apartment is lovely. Exactly like the pics & in an ideal location. Patrick is a lovely guy & was a marvellous host under exceptional circumstances. My friend & i had alread enjoyed a very pleasant stay during the 5 nights planned holiday. But Patrick proved himself to be an absolute diamond when hurricane Sandy came to town & we were unable to fly home & everyone was forced to stay indoors! He was more than generous, sharing food & an an old movie with us whilst weathering the storm...

The situation meant we ended up spending a couple more nights than we'd anticipated in Williamsburg, but this was no great hardship as it's a fantastic neighbourhood with loads of great places to eat & drink & thrift stores & cool boutiques galore! Also being on the L line is a big plus as it allows you to enjoy the best of both worlds in terms of Brooklyn & Manhatten & this apartment's close proximity to Bedford Avenue subway is ideal!

So if your looking for a cozy, characterful space to feel at home in after a day/night indulging in all that the city has to offer, I'd recommend this place in a New York minute...
