Eli is an amazing host! Her house is so well decorated (she's a well traveled, trained architect, her design is great!). I loved getting to play with her sweet puppy (Nina) and her two cats (definitely named after the X Files). Eli made the sweetest neighborhood guide which was great for getting around, and finding things to do nearby!

Her house is also right next to Prospect Park, which was my favorite place to hang out, and close to the train so it was easy to get into Manhattan. The room was bright and airy and on the opposite end of the apartment from her room, so it felt like I had a lot of privacy. There was also a second bathroom, so it felt like I had plenty of privacy.

Eli is also the warmest host, she was so easy to be around and chat with! Super friendly, she had a ton of suggestions but also was great about letting me have my own time and space to myself. Overall, absolutely ideal!!!
