Ray was basically best-case-scenario host (we didn’t meet Melissa during our stay but I’m sure she is equally as great)! He and Melissa live just upstairs from this space (same house), but you have all your own space including a private entry, living room with a smart TV, full bathroom, full kitchen, and huge bedroom with backyard access. The space was super clean and had everything we needed and then some! It was perfect for us.
We had a beer with Ray and hung with him for a bit on our first night. He was super friendly and showed us around the space including the spacious and comfortable backyard. However, he and Melissa also gave us plenty of privacy and our own space. It was the best of both worlds!!
Another huge plus side of Ray and Melissa’s place was the affordability considering how accessible it is (great location). Not only is it close to a handful of bars/restaurants, coffee shops, liquor stores and delis, but also subway stops so you can easily check out other areas of Brooklyn or even Manhattan.
Overall, highly recommend this place. From the affordability to the awesomeness of the space and hosts, you can’t go wrong!
