  • Reviewer: Vincent

    Comments: 1er voyage à NYC et l'accueil est au rendez-vous. Il n'y a eu aucun problème de communication par mail ou en direct avec Rhonda, qui est disponible à tout moment mais pas intrusive. Elle est chaleureuse et nous a accueilli, ma femme, mon fils et moi, dans la joie et la bonne humeur. Son appartement, situé au rez de chaussée d'une maison, est très agréable et a le confort nécessaire que l'on attendait. Le quartier est calme et typique de ce que l'on s'imaginait au travers de nos seuls repères que nous avions, à savoir des images télévisuelles. Rhonda s'est rendue disponible pour notre départ (réveil à 02:45) et à notre demande s'est occupée de nous réserver la veille une voiture pour nous déposer à JFK (30$, contre 60$ à notre arrivée dans un Yellow cab). Le léger éloignement de cet appartement n'a pas été un inconvénient, cela nous a permis de découvrir Brooklyn, cela en vaut la peine de jour comme de nuit, de prendre le métro comme tous ceux dont c'est le quotidien, et de nous échapper de la vie trépidante et du bruit de Manhattan. Je ne regrette absolument pas mon choix et je conseillerai à ceux qui veulent découvrir NY de ne pas se cantonner à Manhattan et de s'ouvrir aux districts moins "cosy" de réputation comme l'est Harlem ou encore le Bronx, et pour Brooklyn je conseillerai l'appartement de Rhonda.

  • Reviewer: Anna

    Comments: Rhonda was a most helpful and welcoming host. She was easy to get hold of and promptly answered any questions. The apartment was freshly painted, clean and tidy. There was plenty of space for our four suitcases, a wardrobe to hang clothes, tables and areas to charge our mod-cons, spread ourselves out and so on. The double bed has a firm mattress and soft, clean sheets. The windows look out onto the car porch and street but we were undisturbed. The bathroom was newly refurbished with shiny surfaces and a fantastic hot shower which we really appreciated. The dining area was where we caught up on work and watched TV. The kitchen looks out onto an old garden with tall trees. We helped ourselves to juice, muffins, toast and coffee in the mornings out of Rhonda's fridge. In the evenings, the apartment was very pleasant for chilling out without having to go out. There is a double pull-out sofa and a three-seater leather sofa as well. Our children enjoyed visiting us and there was plenty of room. It is cosy, gently-used apartment, with interesting things to look at and think about, including a collection of old and beautiful lamps. The street is quiet. There are two laundromats on the same street, sundry stores, a Chinese takeaway and a beautiful Roman Catholic church nearby. We attended mass on a Sunday and admired how beautifully Brooklyners dress for church. We said hello to the priest and attended the crowning of the statue of the Virgin Mary in the garden. We felt like part of the community - the kind that says "Bless You" from across the isle when someone sneezes in the pew behind you. I was very happy to attend a mass where people shouted Amen! Gospel style. The subway is a short and very pleasant walk away. We walked to and from the station along different streets just to see how everyone lived. There are a number of old, gorgeous buildings in this area. The subway for the A and C takes you to all the hip and happening places in Brooklyn, as well as to Manhattan City. We discovered several great restaurants, like the Black Swan, The Islands, Saraghina, Stonehome, Prospect, and many more in the Lafayette and Franklin areas. We were in NY to attend our daughter's graduation from NYU which is held at Yankee Stadium so this Brooklyn apartment was ideal for the airport, the stadium, Manhattan, and our children's apartment two streets away. Rhonda lives in the same building and checked in on us every day. We always had something to ask her. We felt very at home, as if we were staying with friends, and certainly by the second day we had become friends and spent a couple of evenings chatting. It was wonderful to get to know Rhonda and get a feel for the community instead of flitting in and out of places and feeling like you never actually arrived. We will be back.

  • Reviewer: Pietro

    Comments: My wife and I have been staying at Rhonda's place for two weeks, and everthing perfectly matched airbnb's descriptions. One long review above tells everything about the neighbourhood and the place, and everything is exactly what we experienced. Moreover Rhonda was delightful, amanzigly helpful. She always replied promptly and thoroughly, before and during our stay. She is living in the same building, and is always available and kind. The house was perfectly clean and equipped with everything one could possibly imagine to need. Finally: nice place to stay in Brooklyn, great and reliable host. We recommend it!

  • Reviewer: Andrey

    Comments: My most average airbnb experience so far 1. I wouldn't consider this as 'private apartment' since Rhonda and her daughters lives right above the place and come in and out our place any time they want without prior notice. After we started to lock our door the situation improved but they proceed visiting the place while we were out. 2. There are washing and drying machines standing in the middle of the living room. But you are not allowed to use it (unless you are ready to pay $50 penalty to Rhonda). Well, it is not a problem, but the problem is that Rhonda is using it for her own needs while you live there. 3. You should be prepared to hear Rhonda's comments about the way you do things starting from microwave usage to cloths packing basing on what she saw in your apartment while you were out I understand that some of these things might be ok if you renting a room, but we rented the apartment and hoped to have some privacy. On the positive side - it is quiet there at night and the air is fresh.

  • Reviewer: Barbara

    Comments: Our stay at Rhonda's apartment was perfect in all ways. It is cosy, very clean and has everything you need. Rhonda was always responsive if needed, thus collecting the keys or the arrangements for our departure were very easy to made. In contrast to the previous comment we had the entire apartment at our own disposal and full privacy. The neighborhood is very nice and friendly, with a nice cafe and restaurant just around the corner. And Brooklyn is really a very good place to stay and to explore. However, the drive to Midtown Manhattan takes around 45 minutes, which is fine once a day, but does not allow you to make a short rest in the apartment and go there again. All in all, a perfect stay.

  • Reviewer: Kaye

    Comments: We enjoyed our trip to New York. Rhonda was a great host--very nice--easy to talk to. Her place was as pictured---it was very clean--plenty of room for our stay. I would certainly recommend her apartment--and stay here again myself.

  • Reviewer: Gretka

    Comments: Rhonda welcomed us very nicely and she is very lovely and cheerful person. Flat was very nice and clean, exactly like on the pictures. Me and my friends felt very comfortable. Its only 10 mins walk to the subway and it takes you straight away to Manhatan which is awesome. totally recommned it!!!!

  • Reviewer: Victor

    Comments: Very comfortable house, well equipped and located on a calm town, 7-10 min walk to the Kingston subway station (line C) which takes you directly into the hearth of Manhattan. We really enjoyed our time there, and Rhonda welcomed us very warmly. She rocks!

  • Reviewer: Diane

    Comments: Rhonda a été adorable, aux petits soins et très attentionnée. Elle dégage des ondes très positives , toujours prête à vouloir nous aider. C'est promis la prochaine fois que nous revenons à Brooklyn c'est chez Rhonda/ the place to be /

  • Reviewer: Jill

    Comments: My husband and I can't say enough to thank Rhonda for her graciousness as a host. She is personable, warm, and caring, and we felt a connection from the minute she welcomed us to her home. We appreciated the well-equipped kitchen and were able to enjoy leisurely breakfasts just like home before setting out to spend the days with family in the area. In fact, staying with Rhonda felt like staying with family, but with just the right amount of privacy, quiet and comfort. We also enjoyed the Halloween festivities on the block and the very friendly neighbors who greeted us on the street. We are looking forward to staying with Rhonda again, and hope she will come to visit us some day!

  • Reviewer: Jean-Julien

    Comments: We had a wonderful time at Rhonda's beautiful apartment. Beside the great, clean and well situated apartment, Rhonda knows perfectly how to treat her hosts. She even invited us for a traditional diner on the 1st of January. We just had a great time and I warmly recommend this bnb.

  • Reviewer: Maitê

    Comments: A Rhonda foi realmente uma super host! Nós chegamos com a casa super limpa, ela foi muito simpática e nos mostrou tudo. Ela até nos levou para a casa dela (que fica nos andares de cima) para nós assistirmos a luta com ela :D Enfim, a casa é ótima, tivemos nossa privacidade, no quarteirão dela existe um mercadinho onde nós fizemos as comprar para a janta. A linha C do metro fica há uns 10 minutos de lá, é uma boa caminhada sim, mas com essa linha você consegue ir para todos os lugares mais famosos de Manhattan! Eu e meus amigos adoramos e nós agradecemos a Rhonda por ter proporcionado uma ótima viagem para nós.

  • Reviewer: Aude

    Comments: Nous avons été très bien accueillis par Rhonda est une hôte qui bichonne ses invités, très disponible. Elle nous a même réservé le taxi pour le retour à l'aéroport. L'appartement est situé dans un quartier calme de Brooklyn, le métro vers Manhattan est à 10 minutes à pied. Il est spacieux, un peu sombre mais ce n'est pas très dérangeant. Très bonne adresse pour des personnes qui souhaitent s'éloigner du brouhaha de Manhattan le soir!

  • Reviewer: Slavka

    Comments: House is exactly as described. Rhonda is a nice person. House is 15 min walk to nearest metro station. Apartment is on ground floor, so you can hear everybody on stairs getting up. Apartment was clean and newly renovated (except entrance hall)..

  • Reviewer: Olga

    Comments: Rhonda was a great host. She deserves the name of superhost. We felt very welcome. She had bought bagels, water and cream cheese for us when we arrived which was very kind. The room was clean and it was exactly what the foto's promised to be, even the lamp in the window. We can highly recommend this place in Brooklyn when you want to visit the Big Apple.

  • Reviewer: Dolores

    Comments: My girlfriends and I were in a bind because the apartment we had originally reserved canceled on us 3 days before we were to arrive in New York. We did Instant Book and Rhonda's profile came up. We booked it immediately. Rhonda was a gracious host, her apartment was perfect and in a great neighborhood in which we felt safe. My girlfriends and I liked the idea of having the host in the building. Rhonda made sure that our needs were met during our stay. We recommend Rhonda's brownstone. Sincerely, Dolores , Nadine, Lynn and Lea.

  • Reviewer: John

    Comments: Conveniently situated in Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant Area, Rhonda'a airbnb is a welcome retreat from a hot (or I imagine cold) day. Ms. Harrington had prepared for us a clean, neat, roomy apartment, complete with milk in the Fridge, fruit in the bowl, ample towels and some bagels and cream cheese for a beginning snack. There is a very handy and easy-to-use coffee maker with lots of filters. Grocery stores are located near-by Several times Rhonda stopped by to chat and we very much enjoyed her visits, including her knowledge of Brooklyn and the general New York area. This is a very choice spot for visitors who will stay from a few days to longer.

  • Reviewer: Stephen

    Comments: Rhonda was a great host - she made sure that we had everything that we needed and kept an open line of communication with us. The description was perfect, she left fruit and bagels and the place was very clean. The rooms were very clean and the wifi was fast and never went out. The area is fairly close to a multitude of subway lines and there are many nearby dining options

  • Reviewer: Pascal

    Comments: High Welcome Level Rhonda saved us from an initial pb with another location She was very helpful and did the impossible to prepare the apartment shortly for us. Gold metal for this. The apartment is perfect, private, one room, large bed, bathroom, and main dinner room with kitchen with there is a sofa. Area is quite, not so far from the subway (line A/C), Manhattan is under 20 minutes. Very clean, And the hospitality from Rhonda is very high level. We will back, Sure

  • Reviewer: Philippe

    Comments: Le logement correspond à la description et est très bien équipé. Rhonda nous a reçu merveilleusement. Elle nous a conseillé et a toujours été disponible pour nous renseigner, nous guider ou tout simplement discuter avec nous. Encore un grand merci pour cet accueil si chaleureux.

  • Reviewer: Van Rossem

    Comments: Premièrement je voudrais remercier Rhonda pour sa gentillesse et sa disponibilité. C'est une personne chaleureuse qui s'occupe bien du bien-être des ses locataires. Elle venait pratiquement tous les jours voir si nous ne manquions de rien. Le quartier est peuplé de beaucoup de gens des iles, mais est très paisible et beaucoup de rues ont des arbres qui donnait un petit aire d'avenues. La station de métro avec une connexion direct vers Manhattan et Time Square se trouve à 9 rues de la maison. Un arrêt de bus se trouve à 30 mètres. C'est un point idéal pour visiter New-York. A recommander. Rhonda nous a commandé une voiture pour aller à l'aéroport pour un petit prix, merci :-) L'appartement est agréable, propre et on dors bien. Pour les personnes qui veulent cuisiner il y a tout, grande cuisinière, grand frigo. Pour les européen n'oubliez pas des adaptateurs pour les prise de courants (mais ils en vendent dans les magasins près de la station de métro). Nous embrassons encore Rhonda en espérant la revoir dans le futur :-)

  • Reviewer: Michael

    Comments: From the moment we arrived for NYFW Rhonda was the most remarkable host we've ever stayed with. The place is exactly what you expect from the photos. Very spacious, plenty of room for all your needs. The kitchen is such a nice feature, and to have a gas stove for those mornings you want to wake up and make your own breakfast is priceless. It is super convenient to get anywhere from her place. The train or taxi are minutes away. A lot of good grocers near by for any items you may need to pickup during your stay. I found a bunch of good coffee shops near by with a little walk. This place is very quiet at night with the occasional sirens like you get from any inner city. I loved the bathroom, the inside of the place is so cozy. Rhonda made it so easy to navigate the city and was super helpful getting us our first taxi, the company we used respects her very much and had great cars. To anyone needing an affordable place that has no let downs I'd give my highest recommendation for this place. I will definitely be back.

  • Reviewer: Marie Theres

    Comments: Our family had a great time at Rhondas place. We were so warmly welcomed and had all we needed. Metro and Manhattan are reachable in a very reasonable time. Nice neighbourhood and good restaurants very closely. We were happy and certainly will go back to Rhonda.

  • Reviewer: Gwyneth

    Comments: We had a spectacular time at Rhonda's place in Bedford-Stuyvesant. For most of the week, I stayed there with one guest. Then, my BF joined us for the rest of the booking. It was a little tight with three adults, but we made it work. If you're going to be sightseeing in Manhattan, Rhonda's apartment is an ideal home base. That said, during rush hour, it can take >60 mins to get back from Midtown. Also, the apartment is a >10 mins walk to either subway line. Staying at this place allowed us to explore Brooklyn as well as Manhattan. Bed-Stuy is an up-and-coming neighborhood, so it still offers good value. At night, the streets can be a *little* bit dicey. The kitchen is well supplied, so if you want to cook, you can. Rhonda is very friendly and accommodating. Staying with her is like staying with family.

  • Reviewer: Noelia

    Comments: Todo correcto, buena anfitriona, preocupada por nuestra estancia, barrio sin problemas, a pocos minutos parada de metro, casa limpia e identica a fotos.

  • Reviewer: Haim

    Comments: Rhonda was great! She truly helped my parents settle in to the neighborhood in the short time they were in Brooklyn and her hospitality contributed a lot to our great time as a family. Rhonda went out of her way to accommodate our requests and was flexible, warm and overall just a wonderful host!

  • Reviewer: Timur

    Comments: Notre hôte nous a très bien reçu , le quartier est bien desservit par les bus facilement pour aller à Manhattan , par le 43 il y a une liaison métro ligne "L" directe ( proche du parc Washington square) . Par le 52 on va aussi sur le réseau du métro sinon à 1 km à pied il y a la ligne A et C pour Manhattan . Rhonda nous a réservé un taxi pour partir à l'aéroport avec beaucoup de gentillesse .

  • Reviewer: Matthew

    Comments: It's pretty difficult to find a better host. Rhonda is very welcoming, responsive, polite, easy-going, generous. The apartment was very clean and had everything we could need, including an impressively stocked kitchen. The sofa bed is also very comfortable, which was a definite advantage as a party of more than 2. The location is nice and has easy access to two different metro lines within 10-15 minutes walk. An excellent stay all round, definitely recommended.

  • Reviewer: Ramona

    Comments: Rhondas was a perfect host. She was were welcoming (she bought fresh bagels for us when we arrived) and she was so helpful (she arranged a cheap taxi to the aiprort for us). The apartment was super clean, enough space for three people. All in all it was very lovely to stay at her place. There are only two points we thougt were a bit problematic: since it's an apartment in the basement and the slepping room is towards it is very noisy all the time. And, especially at night, the area didn't seem very safe. Taking bus at night or walking the 20-30 min from the subway is very tough and takes a long time e.g. from Manhattan. You should take a taxi if you stay there! Then you will have a great time in Rhonda's house and with her as host. She was lovely!!

  • Reviewer: Crystal

    Comments: Our trip was an absolutely amazing experience for our entire family which was truly enhanced by our experience (Email hidden by Airbnb) munication prior to our arrival was great and we were met by warm greetings upon arrival and each encounter we had with Rhonda (and her family). The apartment is spotless, well stocked and comfortable. It is the perfect size for our family of 3. It is conveniently located within a couple blocks from bus lines, or a brief walk to the subway within 5-10 minutes. There is also a readily available Uber via curbside. We quickly and easily headed to Manhattan each day to sightsee, as well spent a day in Brooklyn all with ease. We had great little stores to stop in throughout our days and also delicious restaurants just down the street, Peaches Hot House is a MUST! We have already recommended Rhonda's house to family and friends who have mentioned traveling to NYC/Brooklyn. It was simply beyond what we had expected for a place to rest each night. We would brew coffee in the am, sit out on the steps and chat with neighbors passing by like we truly lived there. We honesty felt like part of the family after our 7 day stay. Rhonda had us stocked with coffee, bottled waters and bagels upon arrival. She worked with us for checking in and checking out with ease, even allowing us to leave our bags to sightsee a bit before our late departure. Hopefully I've raved enough to make anyone stay here and we look forward to our next trip to NYC as Rhonda's place will be our first stop:) Thank you!!

  • Reviewer: Sameera

    Comments: My mother and I arrived a little earlier than expected at Rhonda's and so she was still cleaning when we arrived. She helped bring all of our luggage in from the taxi and made us feel extremely welcome immediately. We were given a tour of the place and Rhonda told us about everything we would possibly need to know for our trip. The kitchen was well stocked with the basics and the place was extremely clean and well maintained. It was close (15 mins) to 2 subway stations which take you straight to Upper and Lower Manhattan so very easily accessible. The location is also close to some cool bars, restaurants and many supermarkets should you need to buy food or drink. Rhonda was always a message, call or knock on the door away to answer any of our questions or concerns. My mother and Rhonda developed a friendship during our stay which was absolutely wonderful. Rhonda was the best host anyone could ever ask for. I'd definitely recommend staying here and would absolutely stay here again!

  • Reviewer: Martin

    Comments: My wife and I are from Europe and it was our first time in NY. At first we were not sure about Brooklyn. Is it safe enough? Isn't it too far to do all the sightseeing? Turned out it is a perfect location where everyone knows each other within walking distance (10-15 min) to two metro stations, with a very friendly and welcoming host (thank you Rhonda for making us feel so good). The apartment was very well stocked and cleaned, Rhonda even let our friends from Slovakia have a sleepover, which was very kind of her. Also, what we appreciated the most - there are very good coffee places just around the corner - Sincerely, Tommy, which is also a clothes designer shop, Kettle coffee, very Instagram friendly and a fantastic bagle place Nagle's bagels. Don't think New York is just Manhatten, you'll be missing out. We would be sorry if we haven't spent at least three days in Brooklyn!

    Comments: Fue todo barbaro! Rhonda es muy amable, cariñosa y nos hizo sentir muy bien. El departamento es muy cómodo, tiene todas las comodidades y súper limpio. La próxima estadía en ny volveremos! Lo recomiendo!!!!

  • Reviewer: Rebecca

    Comments: Rhonda's apartment was perfect for us. It is very well equipped comfortable and spotlessly clean. I usually don't sleep too well when I'm traveling so I was delighted with the comfortable bed and the quiet street. The Location was superb for us; within walking distance of the subway and express trains into Manhattan. We ate in terrific neighborhood restaurants every evening and the nearby grocery store had everything you could need. The very best part of our stay was meeting and being cared for by Rhonda. She has to be a rock star in the Airbnb host world:patient and helpful, readily available, but mindful of our privacy. She provided bagels cream cheese and bottled water to get us started and checked in with us from time to time to make sure all was well. She even rescued us after we left our cell phone charger behind by bringing it to us and giving us a ride to the subway. She is really a gem and we would stay with her again in a heartbeat. Five stars for Rhonda!!!

  • Reviewer: Ben

    Comments: Rhonda is by far the best airbnb host I've ever had the pleasure to meet. Her house is spectacular and the level of care she provides to her guests is unmatched. After our first rental wasn't up to scratch, Rhonda saved us. Her place is very homey and inviting and the location is fantastic. The ammenities are great, the beds are really comfortable and her house is very clean. She is also very inviting and very easy to talk to. Stay here and you won't be disappointed. As I said, the best place I've stayed in years. Thank you Rhonda!

  • Reviewer: Alen

    Comments: Rhonda e' stata eccezionale e l'apppartamento super! Fin da subito Rhonda ci ha dato consigli utili dall'aeroporto al suo appartamento, l'appartamento corrisponde esattamente alle foto pubblicate. Lei vive al piano superiore con la sua famiglia ed per tutto il soggiorno ci ha sempre lasciato la nostra privacy. Per ogni esigenza si e' dimostrata premurosa e gentile. Il quartiere e' molto carino con ristoranti/caffe' per ottime colazioni e brunch. Un po' distante dalla subway ma ne vale la pena fare due passi e soprire Bedford-Stuyvesant. Se dovessi ritornare a Brooklyn sicuramente sceglierei di ritornare da Rhonda per ospitalita', gentilezza e pulizia. Appartamento consigliatissimo! Alen

    Comments: Rhonda is a great host and we had a great time talking to her. She helps us to make our way around Brooklyn and Manhattan.

  • Reviewer: Calvin

    Comments: I was expecting an apartment in an apartment building but this is a room in a private home or as Rhonda calls it "family house." Both doors of the apartment like room open up on to an entry way that is shared with Rhonda and her family. According to Airbnb this is still considered an "entire home" but in my opinion it is a room in a home. Although the room does contain everything an apartment would. I think the listing should specify the fact that this is not an apartment in an apartment building but an apartment like room in Rhonda's home (a room that does not include a private entrance but forces the guest to walk through the entry way of Rhonda's home.

    Comments: This is my first time use Airbnb, Rhonda is a excellent host, I said I will be a bit late on the date of checkin, but actually I arrived earlier than I expected, she ran back and gave me the key as soon as she can, this is very impressive. On the day of the Christmas Eve, she came by and said merry Christmas to all of us. Highly recommend to use house here.

  • Reviewer: Diego

    Comments: The layout is perfect; you're own room and space with a very well stocked kitchen (important to those who enjoy cooking). The area was perfect; nothing crazy around but certainly not too far from any action you want to be. If this place is available, snatch it right away, you're not gonna find anything else that feels like home AND doesn't break the bank

    Comments: A week of Rhonda was very good. All the rave reviews you read on airbnb are true. Rhonda and her family are very nice people. Loved staying there. The neighborhood is very beautiful and pleasant, if possible I would like to stay again at Rhonda's house

  • Reviewer: Davy

    Comments: Rhonda was like a second mom for us. Even in the hardest of times. My girlfriend was pregnant and because of a kidney stone she had to go to a closeby ER in the middle of the night. Rhonda stayed up with us and gave us advice, called a cab to the hospital and when we returned she made us an amazing meal. This is just to say that we couldnt have wished for a better host. We had the real Brooklyn experience, full of warm and generous people.

    Comments: Rhonda was just wonderful. I was traveling with my parents and we had a very comfortable stay. She was a great host and loved staying with her. The location is great, very close to the train station. Would definitely stay here again.

    Comments: Great apartment with lovely host and 10 min walk to metro into downtown. Very clean and well looked after. Would 100% return.

  • Reviewer: Yuan

    Comments: Rhonda was very welcoming and was like a family. We enjoyed our stay and the room had everything we needed.

  • Reviewer: Busra

    Comments: Rhonda is a very friendly host. She welcomed us promptly and gave us good recommendations for shopping in the neighborhood. We spent 5 days in this apartment, and regardless of the day of the week, this is a very loud street. That was a big problem for us. After a long day in the city, it was disappointing to be woken up by the noises on the street or loud footsteps in the hallway. This is an issue in big cities, however some noise could have been avoided. Transportation was convenient. There are bus stops and subway stations in walking distance.

    Comments: I really liked our stay at Rhonda's place. The appartement is really clean, comfortable and in a great up and coming area in Brooklyn. Rhonda truely loves her guests and it shows: she made us feel so welcome and we could even use her washing machine. The appartement is on the ground floor of a house and located next to the front door, so it can be a little bit noisy at times when people leave for work in the early hours. Nontheless it was a great stay and I would definately come back!

    Comments: O apartamento de Rhonda tem o básico necessário. Um quarto com cama de casal, armário e ar-condicionado antigo. Não tem blackout nas janelas, então quem precisa dor no escuro é melhor levar tapa olho. A sala tem bom tamanho com sofá, mesa e quatro cadeiras e os eletrodomésticos básicos na cozinha. O banheiro é pequeno, mas o banho é bom. Há maquina de lavar e secar roupa, mas não podem ser utilizadas pelos hospedes. O apartamento não está localizado em local próximo a bares e restaurantes e fica a uns 15 minutos de Uber de Williamsburg. o que há são supermercados nos arredores. O único local que existe na esquina é o S. T. Coffee. Excelente.

    Comments: Staying at Rhonda's place has been just perfect. We were 10/15 minute walking distance from the metro and the neighbour was nice. The apartment had everything we needed and it was very clean. About Rhonda, she definitely is the coolest landlord I have met so far, I strongly recommend her.

  • Reviewer: Javiera

    Comments: Rhonda's place is even better than we expected! My dad, my mom, and I found it exceptionally clean, comfortable, and the location was good too (lots of good restaurants and close to 2 stations). Rhonda is one of the nicest hosts I have met, she took the time to come say hello since I arrived after my parents did, and she was so kind as to help my mom out and take her to the place where we were going to stay afterwards! I was very worried for her because she was going to do it alone and speaks little English, but Rhonda's help was a blessing :) thank you for everything!

  • Reviewer: Danco

    Comments: Rhonda was a great host during our 6 day stay in New York. She was super nice, communicative and reachable at any point of time when we needed her. The apartment is part of a larger family house, but with separate and private entrance. The apartment is modern, spacious and fully equiped with all utensils and kitchen devices. Actually, it looks better in live than on the pictures. Moreover, it is very well connected with Manhatan and JFK airport which faciliated the way in and way out. Warmly reccommend Rhonda's place for anyone visiting NY.

  • Reviewer: Elinor

    Comments: Rhonda was a fantastic host!! She let us come in early (even though the previous guests left late!) so we could drop off our luggage before going out again, and she was warm and welcoming throughout our stay. The place was clean and well-supplied with linens, towels etc. The three of us felt right at home. Also, we ordered some things online and made a mistake on our end, so the delivery was made after we'd left. Rhonda was very kind and agreed to forward our mail to us, halfway across the world! Superb hospitality beyond her obligation. Side note, the subway station is about 15min walk away, but there are a couple of bus stops within 5min walk. The neighbourhood is relatively quiet so we slept well at night. She also told us about some restaurants on the next street, but unfortunately we didnt get round to trying them. Overall, 10/10!

  • Reviewer: Patrick

    Comments: This place is an excellent post from which to explore Bed-Stuy. My wife and I stayed here during our visit to Afropunk. Not only did we eat an eclectic selection of foods, we shopped local, got produce at a community garden, went to a block party on "Do The Right Thing" Way (THE block where spike lee shot the movie), and generally just enjoyed the neighborhood. Rhonda was great. She was easily the most accommodating host I've ever stayed with and also had the best recommendations. I will be def be staying here again (if I don't move here first )!

  • Reviewer: Aleshea

    Comments: Rhonda nous a accueilli de façon très chaleureuse. Très disponible, nous avons vraiment pu échanger avec elle à un tel point que nous avons eu la chance de pouvoir l'accompagner à une messe gospel! L'appartement est parfait. Spacieux et impeccable, on ne peut pas espérer mieux. Ce fut une rencontre et une expérience extraordinaires... Merci Rhonda!

  • Reviewer: Jerome

    Comments: We had a wonderfull stay at Rhonda's appartment. This is located under her own appartment. It is close to Metro stations (A and C to Manhattan); The metro is at 17minutes of walk. The neighborhood is nice, with some restaurants and conveninent stores next to the appartment. i recommand to take ear plugs because it can be a little noisy outside in the street, as the bed is next to the window on the street side. Rhonda was very helpfull with her advises. She even allowed us to leave our luggages at her appartment after checkout time, because our plane was late. Thanks. We will come back to your place for sure, if we return to New York

    Comments: Rhonda was amazing. My husband and I travelled from Canada, had flights cancelled on us .. after a very long and rough flight delay (12 hours) we finally made it to Rhonda’s place. She was very friendly and quick to respond ... we were a day late showing up however Rhonda welcomed us at the door and even made us supper one night !!! We couldn’t have asked for a better host ! The location was great ! Thanks again for having us Rhonda !!!

  • Reviewer: Pris

    Comments: Nuestra estancia estuvo increíble, desde nuestro primer momento de llegada Rhonda estuvo siempre atenta a nuestras peticiones, además siempre se preocupó por como nos sentíamos durante nuestra visita. Definitivamente volvería a hospedarme aquí, el departamento muy limpio, cuenta con todos los servicios básicos como cocina, baño, comedor, calefacción, tv, etc. Ubicado a pocas cuadras del metro que conecta Brooklyn con Manhattan, en un pintoresco y acogedor barrio. Definitivamente recomendable y la anfitriona de primera.

The flat is like the description and it's clean It's just 10min walks from the subway station Rhonda is so nice and she brought us to the gospel song in her church. We really appreciated that and it was a wonderful experience And New York is amazing!!!!

  • Reviewer: Sara

    Comments: This was the most hospitable place I’ve stayed in to date! Rhonda was thoughtful (she brought my sick partner soup!) and very friendly. She suggested some restaurants and other local spots to check out. The apartment itself has a well stocked kitchen and ample space to spread out. The bed is very comfortable. Access to the C-line (straight to Manhattan) is easy, maybe 6 or so blocks. We’re planning on visiting again in the fall and I’m hoping to stay here again. Highly recommended.

  • Reviewer: Tamara

    Comments: Rhonda is extremely nice and welcoming. Her home is sparkling clean and she kept it stocked with fresh towels and sheets. The home is on a very cute and quiet residential street, with nice restaurants nearby. The main thing I would note is that it's the first floor of Rhonda's home so while there are two doors to close to make it private, it's not necessarily "the entire place to yourself" so that is something to keep in mind; it's not as private as we had initially expected. Also, if you're going to spend time in Manhattan, it is quite a trek either by cab or subway so keep that in mind. If you want to spend more time in Brooklyn, it's great - about 15 minute cab ride to Williamsburg.

    Comments: Je recommande cet Air BnB . Rhonda est très accueillante , vous mets a l'aise dès votre arrivée et est toujours disponible pour des renseignements concernant le fonctionnement du logement . Concernant l'appartement il est très bien agencé et très bien nettoyé , le nécessaire est la et nous n'avons manqué de rien . Je recommande fortement . I truly advice you to take this apartement ! That was wonderful how Rhonda was available for us when we needed an information or if we wanted something . Her kindness was natural and we saw as soon as we arrived that she will be avaible at anytime . Her apartement was totally clean . I only can say positives things about her , she's sweet and she even have a litle side of mommy : that is why it imposible to let an negative comment for our trip . Thankfully we choose her apartement , our trip woudn't be the same . I was with 2 friends , and we were confortable in here . Trust me , take this apartment you won't be despointed at all . Hopping see you again Rhonda , maybe in France .

  • Reviewer: Maria

    Comments: Für zwei Personen ist die Unterkunft gut geeignet, für eine dritte Person besteht die Option einer Schlafcouch. Rhonda hat alles sehr gründlich geputzt und es war sehr sauber. Wenn man auf der Suche nach einer grosszügigen Wohnung mit einem gemütlichen Aufenthaltsbereich ist, dann ist die Wohnung nicht ideal. Für einen Städtetrip ist man ja aber sowieso mehr oder unterwegs und hierfür ist es ein guter Rückzugsort. Zur nächsten Ubahn ist es ca 12 Minuten - das sollte man im Hinterkopf haben, aber es ist eben NY - aber es gibt diverse Citi Bike Stations in der Nähe. Wer viel und ruhigen Schlaf braucht sollte im Hinterkopf haben, dass die Wohnung im EG liegt und die Gastgeber inkl Kleinkind ebenfalls im Haus wohnen...etwas hellhörig aber hat für uns ansonsten gepasst.

  • Reviewer: Meghan

    Comments: Rhonda’s place is everything you could ever ask for in an air b&b experience. The travel time to any of the must sees by subway is no more than 30 min & the walk to the subway takes less than 10. The neighborhood was so friendly to us, we felt right at home. Anyone coming to NY for the first time or wanting to experience true diverse culture, I definitely recommend staying with Rhonda!

L’appartement est à 30 / 40 mn de Manhattan, dans une zone résidentielle de Brooklyn. De nombreux ‘Deli’ permettent de se ravitailler sans peine.

  • Reviewer: Apollonia

    Comments: We had a great time at Rhonda's! She welcomed us like we knew each other 4 ages. She was really nice and always available. Rhonda lives with her family upstairs. The bnb is on the downfloor. You could here her guest come in and out of the house. But we had no problem with this. People who are used to living in an appartmentbuilding will experience the same thing. For us everything at Rhonda's was great! If I come to NYC again I will definitely come back. Thx again!

  • Reviewer: Jorge

    Comments: Thank you very much Rhonda for hosting us in your appartment. We had a great time there in NYC. We really loved the neighborhood and the house has everything you need for one week. The only thing I missed is that it was a bit far from metro (10min walk) but once you are there you go straight to Manhattan and Brooklyn. Rhonda is such a great guest!

  • Reviewer: Ronald

    Comments: Rhonda's place is a spacious place in Brooklyn, for us a good place to visit new York. Manhattan is only a 20 minutes metro trip a way. The apartment was good, it is the first floor of the house of Rhonda. Because the Rhonda and her family live upstairs you hear them when leaving or entering the house. The front door does make quit some sound. But for us this wasn't a problem, we had good nights rest. The pictures show a little less furniture and equipment than there really is, Rhonda uses the apartment also to store here own equipment (ie laundry machines, turkey cooker and here china).

  • Reviewer: Filippo

L'appartement est bien chauffé si vous venez en hivers. Confortable, propre, bien équipé. Nous reviendrons.

  • Reviewer: Jonatan

    Comments: Warmhearted host, in a safe and quiet up-coming neighborhood. Within 45 mins walking distance to "hipper" areas. Spacious and simple with a great bathroom, and a very nice bathtub. Rhonda's family originates from the south and we really felt that southern hospitality that you hear about. Our flight was delayed after a blizzard, and Rhonda stayed up long after midnight and kept in contact about our situation, until we finally arrived 4 hours later than scheduled - Nothing but smiles and a quick tour of the facilities met us. Highly recommended!! And thank you Rhonda <3

    Comments: Rhonda is very nice and helpful. Her place was very clean, well heated for the freezing weather and we had everything we needed. The apartment is well located, at about 10 minutes by foot from the A and C train to Manhattan. Lots of nice restaurants not too far, also.

  • Reviewer: Nathalie

    Comments: Nous pensions qu'un appartement d'un "super host" nous permettait d'être totalement indépendants. La pièce principale de l'appartement est utilisée durant le séjour (machine à laver et sèche linge). L'appartement est au RDC d'une maison familiale.Très bon accueil de Rhonda, disponible, arrangeante et de bons conseils ! L'appartement est situé à 15 mn du métro, très pratique pour visiter les endroits les plus touristiques. L'appartement est bien équipé et bien chauffé. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir...l'année prochaine !

    Comments: Rhonda’s place in Brooklyn is hands down a perfect match. It is impeccably clean, comfortable, and convenient to the MTA that is only a short walk away. Rhonda’s place is completely hooked up with all you would need. Clean bathroom, cute kitchen, clean bedroom. Her space is stylish and comfortable- truly a home away from home. Rhonda is also an extremely kind and attentive host who is always accessible. She takes genuine interests in her guests and is 100% solid in what she does. Can’t thank her enough!
