We had a great time staying at Kris' place! He was a wonderful host and his projector was awesome! My boyfriend and I would definitely stay there again if we ever went back to NY!
Jun 27, 2019Kris and Kristen were great hosts! Very friendly, accommodating and helpful. The listing is close to just about anywhere you'd want to be in Greenpoint, and easily accessible by train.
Jun 27, 2019Magnifique logement bien situé, avec grande chambre, très calme et literie très confortable. La cuisine est bien équipée et le comptoir convivial pour les repas. Kris nous a accueilli chaleureusement et a été très flexible sur l'heure d'arrivée et de départ. Hôte vivement recommandé ! Et quartier à découvrir absolument !
Jun 27, 2019We had a wonderful stay at Kris' place! It was extremely homey, clean, orderly, and inviting. Unfortunately, we did not get a chance to meet Kris and his girlfriend because they were out of town for the weekend. However, they were very easy to reach during our stay, were willing to answer any questions we had, and were accommodating even at a distance! My boyfriend and I fell in love with the Greenpoint area and would love to visit again!
Jun 27, 2019My best friend and I stayed here for the weekend. Kris and Kristen were excellent hosts! Very fast response time, super accomodating and just great people all around. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who needs a place to stay in Williamsburg. Thanks again for opening up your home to us!
Jun 27, 2019I had a great experience staying at Kris' apartment! Kris was quick to respond during the booking and "check in" process which I appreciated, and he and his girlfriend were friendly and nice to be around during my stay. I didn't spend much time in the apartment but the room was exactly as pictured and a perfect place for me to come back and relax. The apartment location is fantastic and I was able to explore a lot of Greenpoint by foot - it's an awesome neighborhood and definitely worth spending some time here!
Jun 27, 2019Kris was very helpful helping me get the key and the apartment is nice and clean and quiet. Bed was very comfortable.
Jun 27, 2019Very awesome experience.
Jun 27, 2019Kris ans Kristen appartment was very well located in Greenpoint. Their street is quiet and the neighborhood felt very peaceful. Communication was very easy with our hosts throughout the weekend and before. The apartment is very clean, and we thought it was decorated with a lot of taste. Thank you again Kris and Kristen!
Jun 27, 2019Listing was accurate. Quiet street, helpful hosts.
Jun 27, 2019Kris was very responsive and welcoming. The location is 5 minutes walk away from the Greenpoint subway station which was very convenient, and the listing was exactly as shown in the pictures. Very quiet neighborhood and comfy bed.
Jun 27, 2019Kris was a very good host, he and his girlfriend were very helpfull and nice persons. The place was exactly the same as in description, very clean near to subway. Also it was in quiet and lovely neighbourhood. We will definitely recommend this host!
Jun 27, 2019Everything was as advertised and suited us perfectly.
Jun 27, 2019Kris was easy to communicate with and flexible with check-in/check-out time. I felt safe and comfortable. The area is great, a block from the Expo center. I was in town for a conference and it was very convenient. Overall a really great experience.
Jun 27, 2019Kristin & Kris, were so kind and understanding to our situation. I appreciated the continuous communication. Very nice couple and a great place to stay.
Jun 27, 2019This is a really nice room in a really nice apartment in a really nice part of Greenpoint. It's a 15 minutes walk to L train station at Bedford avenue that gets you in no time to Manhattan. So if you want to avoid hustle and bustle of Williamsburg, this is a great alternative. The hosts are great and will make you feel very welcome in their apartment.
Jun 27, 2019Great location, lovely room, comfy bed, and responsive host. But if you have lots of luggage or some health issues, be aware the apartment is 3-flights up.
Jun 27, 2019Kris was a great host!
Jun 27, 2019Pros: Quiet residential street, easy access to nearby shops and subway, clean apartment and comfortable bed, super-friendly hosts. Cons: none! Would absolutely stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019We had an amazing stay at Kris'. The place was as described, clean and confortable. The neighborhood is great with a lot to do. Kris and his girlfriend are very welcoming and friendly. We definitely recommend this place!
Jun 27, 2019Convenient ! Great neighborhood.
Jun 27, 2019Kris was helpful and cheery. Located in an amazing neighborhood. Apartment was clean, nice, and quiet.
Jun 27, 2019The place was a great location for us as we were going to an event at the expo center just down the road from this location. It was a really nice place to stay but would warn others it is on the 4th floor and not sure if it says that in the description or not while it was not a big deal for me but for some it could be a problem. Other than than that a great place to stay.
Jun 27, 2019Great hosts! Although I did not meet Kris, and briefly met Kristen, they were super communicative leading up and throughout our short visit--always a text away. I really appreciated the check-in flexibility. Their neighborhood is fantastic and so close to great coffee/bars/brunch spots and the train. Shower pressure was excellent and although it was a warm spring NY day, the large fan and ability to open the window in our room made for a comfortable sleep.
Jun 27, 2019Kris and Kristen were very communicative hosts and their place is great: clean, bright, modern decoration and nice neighborhood with pretty easy access to Manhattan and most of Brooklyn. The apartment is up three flights so maybe not the best if you have a lot of luggage, but otherwise great!
Jun 27, 2019Thank you for a great stay! Perfect location and room for the night.
Jun 27, 2019Great all around!
Jun 27, 2019My partner and I throughoutly enjoyed staying with Kris (and Kristen). Their beautiful flat had a fabulous and quiet location that really fit our needs. We felt like their (Hidden by Airbnb) and locals in Greenpoint, which was such an exciting part of the city to explore. Kris and Kristen are both seasoned and proactive hosts that think about any needs guests might have and are a pleasure to communicate with. Thanks again, you two!

Jun 27, 2019Génial sur tous les aspects, tant au niveau de la localisation, des hôtes et de l'appartement en soi. Fortement recommandé!
Jun 27, 2019Schönes Zimmer in einer coolen Gegend. Restaurants und Cafés sind in der Nähe und auch mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln kommt man relativ schnell nach Manhattan. Check-In und Check-Out waren flexibel und Kris sehr nett. Würde ich wieder buchen!
Jun 27, 2019Kris was super accommodating when we needed to check in late (10:30-11pm). All communication with him was super easy, clear and fast. Apartment was easy to find and just as pictured. Sheets were clean and bed was comfortable enough. Location is awesome! Oak street is adorable and close to all the greatness of Greenpoint. Check out Ovenly for sure!!

Jun 27, 2019Super responsive and friendly, had good recommendations as well!
Jun 27, 2019EXCELLENT little room to stay! Looks exactly like the pics. We stayed just for one night but it was perfect. You have access to the common areas and the whole space itself is so cozy, clean and nice. Kris provided us a fan for the room and we had air conditioning in the living room as well. He gave us clean towels, access to kitchen, local recommendations, etc. He is a really friendly guy and the apt is just like 7 min walking from the G subway! Amazing !
Jun 27, 2019Exactly as advertised. Easy communication and accommodating with check-in time. As a female traveling alone I felt totally safe with Kris. The place was clean, cute, and convenient.
Jun 27, 2019Kris’s place was perfect! Exactly what I expected. Super clean, cute room, beautiful neighborhood. Kris was such a great host, super sweet, and so accommodating. He made me feel welcomed and safe. Thank you and can’t wait to stay again!

Jun 27, 2019The best Brooklyn location, beautiful street yet lively. Kris is a great host, good communicator. Thank you.
Jun 27, 2019The host canceled this reservation 2 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Jun 27, 2019Super easy and convenient - Kris was really easy to talk with and coordinate everything. He also had some great recommendations for running around the city of NY and locally where to go. Room is perfectly fine and apartment is super cute. Would recommend!
Jun 27, 2019Kris was a really welcoming and friendly host. The location is perfect, on a beautiful side street in a great neighborhood. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
Jun 27, 2019tot correcte!
Jun 27, 2019We stayed here for one night to attend a friend's wedding at Dobbin St., a Brooklyn event space. The location of this apartment was perfect. Communication was a breeze with Kris. The space itself is clean and stylish, the bedroom was perfect and we were able to use bathroom and kitchen as needed. Be advised that this apartment is a 4th floor walk-up, it worked fine for us with our overnight bags but may pose a challenge for other travelers. Overall, highly recommend!
Jun 27, 2019Highly recommend to others
Jun 27, 2019Excellent location in Greenpoint, Kris and Kristen are more than hospitable and have a cute, immaculate home.
Jun 27, 2019Kris was great to communicate with and made me feel welcome. The space is super clean and the bed and pillows were comfortable. I wasn’t there for very long but it was super close to the Expo center when I was having an event. Grabbed a coffee and cookie at Ovenly, their suggestion, thanks for that!
Jun 27, 2019Great stay! Cute street and close to the subway. Very easy to get to Manhattan, and was the perfect location for a (Email hidden by Airbnb) fortable bedroom! Listing is very accurate! Would definitely stay again.
Jun 27, 2019Kris and Kristen's place was perfect, just what we needed for a one night stay. The location is perfect, and Kris was very easy to keep in touch with. Would definitely sta again.
Jun 27, 2019Location was great, very close to Manhattan! If you are looking to explore the city by day and come home to a cozy apartment this is the place for you. The host was good at communicating and easy to get in contact with. Wish the bathroom had a little more space; I recommend bringing a hanging toiletry bag with you just incase. Overall, this place has everything you need!
Jun 27, 2019Kris was very responsive and I had no issues with the stay. His place is in a very convenient location, and I appreciated the free on street parking and being able to walk everywhere I needed to go for the day I was there. I wouldn't give the bathroom a "sparkling clean" rating, but it was clean enough. The bed was comfortable and he was very hospitable during my brief time there, so I would absolutely recommend booking with him.
