I was so lucky to find Richard here on airbnb due to the short notice. I did a spontaneous trip to New York and Richard was really quick to answer and accept. When I got there he had made arrangements so that I could get in and leave my bags. Everything went really smooth and Richard was really informative and helpful. I am so grateful that I got to stay and get to know Richard. He is a very intelligent and helpful person and though I did not take the opportunity to take piano lessons from him I would have probably gotten home with some music in my hands if I did. The neighbourhood is really nice and it is close to the L-train getting to Williamsburg and Manhattan. The room is really quite spacious and the appartment as a whole is very nice and bohemic and just the way you think that an appartment in Ridgewood would look like. I really recommend you to stay with Richard!
