Kanae was the perfect host; prompt, cordial, and respecting of ones' privacy. The apartment was wonderful. Clean, airy, comfortable, and in the best block in Williansburg. Every kind of cozy coffee shop, ethnic restaurant, and convenience was right there. It is the best neighborhood to explore and relax in. I recommend Roebling Tea Room, M Shanghai, Bozu, and Super Fancy. I was there for five days and it made it feel like a month just because it was such a feast arrangement.

The subway is extremely close but you can also walk anywhere in the neighborhood and find fun unique shops and restaurants.
The kitchen, bathroom and bed were very nice. The bathroom was big for New York standards and had a great shower. The towels were clean. There was a small garden in the back as well.
The bed was super comfortable. I might bring my own pillow next time. I am particular about size and firmness, and the pillows were too squishy and small for me. But somepeople like that!
I am a former New Yorker and felt right at home in Kanae's place. She keeps it very simple design which is so calming when you are traveling.
She even had a super nice meditation chair, which is a hanging rope chair to chill out in. The dining room table was really perfect for visitors.
I recommend this place for singles and couples who want an private place to come back to after being in the hustle and bustle of the city. You can run out yo get a bite to eat, but just chill as well.
I don't think there is tv but you don't need one. The kitchen has all the basics. There is extra seating in kitchen to have tea.
I would stock up at C Town supermarket if you are staying a week to have drinks and snacks ready.
I would definitely book this again. There are so many apartments but I feel very lucky to have found this one. It is the best of all worlds in terms of comfort, cleanliness, location, host, and proximity to everything. It worked out really well for me even though I was late from the airport. Kanae gave me a text to see if j was delayed which was nice. Sometimes the time it takes to deplane and get luggage is much longer than expected. Kanae was a patient host in terms of that which can always be stressful. If you are looking for a great street in Willismsburg that can be a terrific oasis at that end of a long day, then this is the perfect spot, I only wish that I could stay longer and make more day trips but being in Brooklyn is pretty great in and of itself. I am so happy I discovered the apartment and got to have do many incredible meals right in the young, accessible, interesting, neighborhood of Williansburg. I look forward to my next stay at Kanae's place!
