Aram was an excellent host - great communication, extremely attentive and made me feel very welcome. The studio itself is beautiful - minimal decor, which I really like, very clean and with great amenities including washer/dryer and superfast internet. The reception staff were very friendly and would welcome me by my name each day. The location is fantastic - right next to the East River ferry landing, Smorgasborg and a HUGE number of great bars and restaurants. Commuting to Manhattan is very easy as the L train is only a few blocks away. I loved Williamsburg and would recommend it over Manhattan (where I stayed the first two months of my trip) any day. I can't wait to go back!
