Reviews

  • Reviewer: Kara

    Comments: Elisabeth's home was wonderful. She has great taste in decoration and style - I loved all of the furniture and art she had on the walls; the place was just very clean and lovely. Access to all of the trains was a breeze, and I enjoyed the neighborhood in general. She was especially kind enough to offer coffee and breakfast in the morning. I would absolutely recommend anybody looking for a nice place in Brooklyn to stay here!

  • Reviewer: Vladyslava

    Comments: Very nice place, Elisabeth and Marina were nice and hospitable, treating me with variety of teas and breakfast. The cat is lovely and friendly! The location is ok, there is a supermarket near the apartment. I takes around 10 min to walk to subway, but there is also a bus just outside the apartment.

    Comments: My friend and I had a most wonderful stay with Liz and her cat, Stella (who we became particularly attached to while away and missing our own pets at home). The apartment was as described. Liz was hospitable and a great conversationalist. Communication was clear and easy. My friend and I shared one set of keys. The neighborhood was vibrant and loud at times but we felt safe even walking several blocks from the A train late at night. We shared a bed which was very comfortable. Sidebar, the water pressure and temperature in the shower were better than mine at home!

  • Reviewer: Perla

    Comments: Liz is a wonderful host as her cat, Stella. The appartement is as described and is just 10 mn walk from the Subways and has a direct bus stop to the airport right in the corner of her place, on st john street. Great neighboorhood for intimate gospel churches and home made street food :)

    Comments: La casa está bien situada, la comunicación con elisabeth fue perfecta. La limpieza podía estar mejor.

  • Reviewer: Katya

    Comments: Lis is very responsive! Her flat is nice, cozy and clean and we were impressed with the magic decor!!! It's amazing!

  • Reviewer: Charlotta

    Comments: Elisabeth was very nice and friendly and the communication went fine. Her flat is located in what is perhaps not the nicest corner of Brooklyn, but there's a bus stop outside the house from where you can get to some more interesting parts of Brooklyn, and it's only about a 20 min walk to the part of Crown heights where you can get good coffee and nice food. Unfortunately I didn't sleep very well during my stay here since the windows to the bedroom were extremely thin and didn't close properly, so there was basically no sound insulation from the noisy street outside (traffic, sirens, loud neighbours/passers-by). Even with earplugs it was so bad that I got quite severely sleep deprived during my stay. But if you don't mind the noise, this could be a good budget option.
