The apartment has more reviews under the other listing on my profile – Same apartment, different room as this listing: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/959871 You'll have access to a shared living room, bathroom and roof deck. There is also a fully equipped kitchen at your disposal with dishwasher, microwave, stovetop/oven, and space in the cabinets for you to use.

Neighborhood Overview: We're on a quiet corner but surrounded by quintessential Brooklyn bars, stores, and restaurants in every direction– the busy Bedford avenue stretch of Williamsburg is a block away (whole foods just opened there too...) 3 great movie theaters are nearby, as well as the famous Smorgasburg weekend food fest in the warmer months. We have a great 24/7 bodega on the corner at Roebling Street.

Notes: The rooftop deck is shared by everyone in the apartment, including you! So feel free to go up and hang out whenever.

Transit: We are a 7-minute walk from both the Marcy Ave (JMZ) and Bedford (L) subway stations, just one stop into Manhattan on either train. It's a 10-minute walk to the parks on the water and 5 minutes to the pedestrian walkway over the bridge. A cycling store on the corner rents bikes and the cycling pathway over the bridge is two blocks away.

Access: You'll have access to a shared living room, bathroom and roof deck. There is also a fully equipped kitchen at your disposal with dishwasher, microwave, stovetop/oven, and space in the cabinets for you to use. There is also closet space just outside your door, if you need, and coin-operated laundry machines in the basement.

Interaction: Franny and I are both friendly and love getting to know people, though we aim to give you your space as a guest. Both of us have busy lives and travel often so it can be pretty quiet around the apartment. If we are around, we are more than happy to offer advice, share our favorite spots in the neighborhood, and point you in the right direction. Franny and I are both social people so we have friends over to hang on the roof deck sometimes when the weather is nice out.

  • Reviewer: Celine

    Comments: Great location, great host everything was very easy. The room has its own quite balcony with a great view and sunshine all afternoon, the appartements os very very clean and there is a huge rooftop too with hamac, sun and barbecue! The host is very sweet and makes everything very easy and the bed is very confortable. About the neighborhood it's the best neighborhood of New York : more quiet than Manhattan, but one stop from Manhattan, less than 5 and 10minutes by walking from J,M, Z train or L train. Plus many things are happening in the neighborhood for locals or for some tourists too. You have a great park to go for running or just for having fun and you can go see the river by 5 minutes walking. It was an amazing stay, thank you!

  • Reviewer: Daniel

  • Reviewer: Josh

    Comments: Perfect spot! Derek was attentive and helped if I ever had any questions, a great host. The room is clean and just as it's described on the listing, also the location of the place is perfect, with great access to public transport. Highly recommend.

  • Reviewer: Lui

    Comments: Derek’s place is awesome! super close to both M and L - 20 mins into town. Derek was great and helped make my trip to NY awesome!

  • Reviewer: Oliver

    Comments: Great neighbourhood, location and value for money. Highly recommended. Derek and Harris will make you feel welcome.

  • Reviewer: Riccardo

    Comments: Cozy flat in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.... good for a short stay in NYC. The flat is close to subway lines that make it easy to join midtown Manhattan in 10/15 minutes. Derek is quite busy but always available for suggestions and help. Appreciated.

  • Reviewer: Juan Esteban

    Comments: The place is very good. The bedroom and the apartment are very comfortable and clean. Williamsburg is a very nice area with a lot of restaurants and bars close to the apartment. Probably the best area of Brooklyn. And 30 minutes from Manhattan. Derek was great host. He's a cool guy, as well as his roommate Harris. Even thought I didn't share too much with them because they and I worked most of the time, the few times I got to spent with them they were nice, great to talk to and always keen to help and make you feel comfortable in their home. I would go again to their place if I need to stay in Brooklyn in a future occasion.

  • Reviewer: Ana

    Comments: Both the house and the room are just like you can see in the pictures plus this home is quite cozy. Derek is a great host, always available even from the other end of the country. I'd definitely recommend this place, host and neighborhood.

  • Reviewer: Tom

    Comments: Great place to stay. Nice neighborhood and close to the metro.

  • Reviewer: Liyan Logan

    Comments: Derek's place is located in the Williamsburg, Brooklyn, which is a very special art area and it has lots of good restaurants and coffee shops. You also can access the subway station very easily. Derek is a very nice person, he extended my stay for free when my flight has been changed. If I visit New York again, I will definitely choose his place again!

  • Reviewer: Patrick

    Comments: Nice place with evening sun balcony!

  • Reviewer: Bochra

    Comments: Derek's place is lovely, it was like being a short-term flatmate during my stay there. The housemates were really welcoming and helpful. The location is great for those who want to spend a lot of time in Brooklyn and it's not too far from the bridge if you'd like to pop over to Manhattan. Highly recommend this as a place to stay in the city and would definitely come back.

  • Reviewer: Leah

    Comments: Had the most amazing time in this ai (Website hidden by Airbnb) location is ideal and close to everything in Williamsburg and not far from LES at all! The hosts went above and beyond to make our stay special and comfortable! Rooftop was amazing - saw the best sunsets here!! Would definitely come back the next time I’m in Brooklyn!

  • Reviewer: Justin

  • Reviewer: Helene

    Comments: Derek's place is in a great neighborhood, very close to Manhattan and multiple subways. The room is comfy, clean, there is a fan in the room and AC in the apartment. The balcony was especially great ! Francesca & Derek were very helpful.

  • Reviewer: Maya

    Comments: Dereks place was GREAT. I loved all about it: Location (nice restaurants and shops nearby), my room (with private balkony), the whole apartment (huge, with roof top terrasse) and the accessbility to the subway (5 min walk). Everything was exactly like it is presented online. The communication was excellent. Derek answered RIGHT AWAY, ALWAYS! Both hosts were very welcoming, asking if help is needed. I enjoyed chatting with the hosts. Everything was uncomplicated and realiable. I highly recommend it and would enjoy coming back sometime again! Thanks a lot!

  • Reviewer: Alanna

    Comments: Derek and Francesca’s place is in a great location, really easy to get around Brooklyn and only one subway stop to Manhattan.

  • Reviewer: Sharon

    Comments: This was my first Airbnb experience and it definitely set high expectations for stays to come. I loved how personable Francesca was and enjoyed the hospitality and personality of both her and Derek. Only one thing was out of place, but otherwise the private patio, bed, and overall space were fantastic. Hope to book again in the future if ever in need.

  • Reviewer: Sara

    Comments: Nice place! Nice to have a private terrace. Derek was very flexible and let me check in early. Good location too!

  • Reviewer: Michael

    Comments: My favorite place I’ve stayed in all of New York! Derek’s place is in a stellar location, with anything you can think of within walking distance. Also the subway rides from both J and L tracks will take you pretty much anywhere you need to go. They keep the apartment super clean. Both Derek and Harris were awesome people, both offered awesome suggestions for restaurants, sight seeing, and night life. When I make another trip to NYC, I know where I’m staying for sure.

  • Reviewer: Pushkar

    Comments: Great location in the heart of Williamsburg, walking distance to two big Subway stations and plethora of bars, restaurants and shopping available close by. Manhattan a short ride on the Subway.

  • Reviewer: Elodie

    Comments: Nous avons passé un agréable séjour chez Derek, l’emplacement est parfait pour pouvoir accéder rapidement à Manhattan et découvrir Williamsburg à pied. Le quartier est top, plein de restaurants, boutiques où il fait bon flâner. La communication avec les hôtes était facile, ils ont été très arrangeants avec notre arrivée et départ ! Je recommande !

  • Reviewer: Johanna

    Comments: Great location, nice and safe neighborhood, the apartment is close to the train so it is really easy and quick to go to Manhattan. The room is confortable, the bed is so good and in general the apartment is cozy. Derek and Francesca are so friendly and cool, they always answered all my questions and even they invited me to join their thanksgiving dinner with their friends :) If I’ll return to NYC in the future, I’ll stay in Derek’s place for sure.

  • Reviewer: Alfie

    Comments: Derek and Francesca are attentive, helpful and laid back hosts who let you get one with your stay with ease. On checking out I was able to leave my bag until the evening as well. Francesca was very quick to respond to any questions and the room is a perfect size for long or short stays, with a balcony and nice view. Area is great with bodegas, thrift stores and restaurants really close by. It’s a perfect distance from manhattan and coming back to a quieter area is a relief after the rush of times square. Will definitely be coming back.

  • Reviewer: Yukako

    Comments: L線Bedford 駅は、最近人気のWilliamsburg の中心エリアで、可愛いお店や、レストラン、バーがたくさんあります。治安も、住んでる住民の雰囲気もとてもいいです。ホストのデレクさんとフランシスさんも、とても素敵な方々で、質問をすると、色々気さくに教えてくれます。おススメです。
