We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was nice and clean. It was nice to have a little more space to settle into since we were staying for five days. Silvia was very helpful and able to recommend great places to eat and visit. The location is great as it is in a fun neighborhood and an easy ride to the city.
Jun 27, 2019Silvia was a great host. She provides a map of the Bushwick area and is very knowledgeable concerning the neighborhood. She's always around in case of emergencies but leaves you alone to do your thing. Would rent again.
Jun 27, 2019We had a great time in New York. Thanks for putting us up Sylvia! The apartment is cute, and as advertised and access to the L and JMZ was very convenient. Sylvia provided us a great map of local things to do--we only wish we had more time to enjoy everything. Tea each night, a little light reading from "Broken Land" and the comfortable accommodations were the perfect respite after long days of sightseeing. We'd stay there again!
Jun 27, 2019We stayed six nights and I would not choose it again. The apartment really is in the basement, it is pretty dark, you never know what the weather is like until you leave the house, the concrete floors make the apartment uncomfortable (bring slippers), there is no closet to hang-up your clothes and I found the place smaller than it appears on the pictures. We did not enjoy staying there. Silvia is very nice and helpful.
Jun 27, 2019The accommodation was exactly as described. Really conveniently located to several different subways line stations which makes getting around really easy. Bushwick is a really interesting and safe place that Sylvia is lucky enough to call home and that my partner and I were lucky to call home for just over 2 weeks. There were hangers for coats etc and a large chest of drawers for other clothes. The place was really well heated. Sylvia & Ty were extremely helpful and gave us an insight into the local happenings. We would definitely stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019We enjoyed our stay very much. Silvia was very responsive and helpful, the bed was comfy. Thanks!
Jun 27, 2019We had a great time in Silvia's cute basement apartment. The space is small but cozy, and the neighborhood is colorful and convenient to other parts of Brooklyn and Manhattan. Silvia provided us with a map of restaurants, shops and art galleries in the neighborhood, and she even gave us directions over the phone when we got lost trying to find the Brooklyn Flea. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay with Silvia again.
Jun 27, 2019We stayed at Silvia's place for a weekend, she was very kind and responsive. The basement is cute and has a character. We didn't spend much time exploring the area, but there are plenty of choices for food and drinks and Silvia has prepared a list of them. Thank you Silvia.
Jun 27, 2019I had a Wonderful stay!!! Very sweet people who I like alot!!! This was a great way to have meet 2 wonderful new friends!! Thanks again!!! Crews
Jun 27, 2019Staying with Silvia was very nice. I felt quite comfortable and safe. The apartment was very clean and nicely furnished. We didn't have a chance to spend time with Silvia and her husband, but they were very welcoming and Silvia gave us lots of tips for things to do in the area. I would stay there again for sure.
Jun 27, 2019My girlfriend and I had a very pleasant stay at Silvia's. All of my expectations were met or exceeded. She was friendly and helpful - available if we needed anything but also gave us privacy. The place was cozy and clean. There was no air conditioning downstairs, but there are windows near the ceiling that can be opened for fresh air. I would definitely consider staying with Silvia again. Thank you!
Jun 27, 2019Silvia was very nice, as was her apartment. I will say that Bushwick has an edgy-ness that was a bit surprising at first but when you look a little closer there is a lot to love. I had an amazing time in the area and Sivila's apt was very central. Thank you Silvia! Keith
Jun 27, 2019Just one word to describe my bnb experience with Silvia: Easy! From the beginning, she was available and friendly. The place is fairly close to Manhattan (15min metro distance) and safer than it looks at the first sight. I have slept like a baby. I would have liked to stay longer. Thanks Silvia!
Jun 27, 2019I truly ejoyed my stay. Silvia gave me my privacy and the apt was well kept. If I had to come back I would not mind staying there. I recommend her.
Jun 27, 2019We had a great stay at Silvia's! She's a gracious host, and the place was clean and cozy, thanks!
Jun 27, 2019Hi, I stayed at Silvia's place in Brooklyn, it was great. I had never done a airbnb stay before and the place met all our needs. The water pipes were a tad loud at night, but I am a light sleeper. She also has a very cute daughter. Thanks Silvia! I will be sure to stay again next time.
Jun 27, 2019Cosy, comfortable and convenient. The place is small, but private and quiet (well, very little street noise but bring earplugs if you're a light sleeper because of the pipes). Close to both the L and the M so very easy to get in or out of midtown or downtown Manhattan, or hipster Williamsburg, etc. A very good find, and we're thankful to Silvia for hosting us!
Jun 27, 2019This basement apartment is exactly as it appears in the pictures. The place was clean and private with fully functioning facilities. Silvia was a great host to me and my boyfriend and was available before and during our stay to answer any questions or concerns. She was really helpful getting us acquainted with the area and provided a map of all the nearby restaurants and attractions. I highly recommend this place for a single person or a couple who seeks an affordable, private place in a cool, diverse, Brooklyn neighborhood.
Jun 27, 2019Silvia was a gracious host, very easy to work with. The apartment was clean and private. The hot shower was a blessing after long days of trekking around Manhattan and Brooklyn. The only problem we had was with the neighborhood. We heard a terrible street fight late on Saturday night, and we didn't feel very comfortable exploring the area during the day. Other than that, I would recommend Silvia's place if you are looking to stay around the Brooklyn area.
Jun 27, 2019Great place in a very convenient location. Would definitely recommend to anyone. Particularly pleasant on really hot days because it stays very cool. Hope to stay again next time I am in Brooklyn.
Jun 27, 2019The Apt was really pretty and nicely decorated. It is well located on the L train. You can travel easily to BK or to Manhattan. The neighborhood was safe. The only thing is the noise at night, from the street . Lively neighborhood! The host was very helpful and nice. I recommend this apt if you want a cool place to stay in.
Jun 27, 2019This was our first Airbnb experience for my wife and I. We enjoyed our four night stay at Silvia's apartment in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Silvia was truly a great host! She responded very fast on all of our text messages, and she gave us plenty amount of tea and coffee when we asked. The room was very cute and clean, good size for two people. Perhaps the only problem we had was the neighborhood. It was a bit sketchy and we didn't feel too comfortable when we got off the subway station. But we didn't encounter any troubles so I think it's safer than it appears! Silvia gave us the list of local cafe and restaurants, so I strongly recommend to try one of them if you have some free times. We tried her favorite Italian pizza place, and they had one of the best pizza we've ever had!!! Thank you Silvia for hosting us wonderful time!
Jun 27, 2019Great host, very centric location, nicely decorated apartment.
Jun 27, 2019We really enjoyed our stay in this apartment. Silvia is a really nice host, she prepared the map of the area with things to see and do around which was very helpful. We have visited some of her recommended places and really enjoyed. The flat is cosy and comfortable. I would definitely go back again.
Jun 27, 2019Two months later and I'm still thinking about what an amazing time we had in Brooklyn. Silvia’s apartment is located in an upcoming neighbourhood near 2 subway stops which go directly into the city. Add to this the fact that there is one of the best restaurants in the city nearby (Roberta’s (Website hidden by Airbnb) and you have yourself a winner. You can’t beat the price and you can’t beat the hospitality. We drove to NYC from Nova Scotia, and we were worried about street parking while we were there but once we arrived it was no problem finding a spot (right across the street from the apt.) and the neighbourhood was very safe. Just be aware most spots have a 2 hour window twice a week when you have to move for street parking and you’ll be fine. I’ve seen other comments about the noise in the neighbourhood but either we were too tired to notice or we’re more tolerant because it was never an issue for us. If you’re looking to do NYC on a budget, Brooklyn is definitely the way to go. We would definitely stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019This is a modest but comfortable basement apartment, slightly cramped (I'm 6'2" and hit my head on a duct a few times, but I'm also a little clumsy!) but clean and quiet. Silvia and her family are great hosts and care about their guests. Good about communication and helping with little things as needed. She also took time to point out things in the area and help with directions. A very positive air bnb experience.
Jun 27, 2019Silvia was a very friendly and helpful host. The apartment was nice and clean. I would defiantly recommend Silvia to anyone I know.
Jun 27, 2019Nice Stay and good people who do care about your accommodations!
Jun 27, 2019Sylvia's place was everything we expected: very clean, close to the MTA, with a lot of grocery stores and restaurants around. She had a very useful and detailed list of things to do and places to go to. We didn't get to meet Sylvia in person but she answered our emails right away with any questions we had. Would gladly recommend her place!
Jun 27, 2019We had the best time staying at Silvia's place. Bushwick was a great location and we felt very safe walking around, even late at night. Two subway lines are within easy walking distance and we really found it no hassle at all getting to and from Manhattan. The room and bathroom were clean and comfortable, we almost slept too well in the dark and quiet basement room, finding ourselves sleeping late most days. We had everything we needed. Silvia is lovely and left us with a very useful map full of nearby food and shopping destinations as well as local places of interest. It was my birthday while we were staying and I emailed her in advance to ask if she knew of any good vegetarian restaurants for us to visit for my birthday dinner and she came up with some great options for us. She gave us privacy but was also very available and approachable should we need anything. I'll definitely stay again when I eventually make it back and would recommend Silvia's place to anyone. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!
Jun 27, 2019Sylvia's place is a very atypical home, close to the MTA, with a lot of grocery stores and restaurants around. The basement apartment is clean and confortable. An atipical positive airbnb experience. We recommend this Cute apt in artist's home.
Jun 27, 2019The basement apartment was pretty much as expected. Was clean and everything was as described. Good bed and my wife and I slept well. Better than most motel beds. Some noise from upstairs but not bad. A little warm when we returned in the evenings but cooled off with the fan on. (we stayed gone most of the day) It was in the 90's some days so with no air conditioner it was surprisingly cool. Very nice couple and we enjoyed our visit to Ty's shop down the street. The neighborhood is in transition but was interesting to visit. Very multicultural. Would consider staying again.
Jun 27, 2019My boyfriend and I stayed at Silvia's home last week. The location was just perfect! Commuting to Williamsburg and Manhattan (our favorite places to be) was very easy. The train stations are located near by. For the most part the apartment was clean, bedding, bathroom and mini kitchenette were user friendly. A couple of issues, I felt that the photos were misleading with regard to the overall cleanliness....the floor wasn't the cleanest, we had to wear slippers because our feet would get black. Then in order to get to the basement apartment you had to go through the garage (which I didn't mind too much) however, it was very crowded with miscellaneous items so you had to be careful coming and going. I felt the need to purchase my own Lysol and Febreeze to keep some spots clean. Otherwise if you are looking for a close location to zip back and forth....this place works well for that purpose. I met Silvia at the end of the trip, she arranged for her friend to meet us which was just fine:)
Jun 27, 2019She let us stay 10 days before arrival. She is very flexible. I asked her how to get her apartment. But she didn't reply my e-mail so my friend and I lost our way. I had to use my international phone call four times to get her place. It cost $30. It rained terribly that day and I had a big suit case. I didn't feel her consideration. The room was good and the bathroom was clean. There is not a carpet in the room though. Somebody was using a washing machine at 6 a.m in the basement. That made me sleep badly. There isn't a key for the room. It means the room is not completely private. Everyone in the apartment can come into the room. You can find better one.
Jun 27, 2019A nice little basement apartment in Bushwick, a perfect base for a few days in the city. Because it's in the basement it doesn't get much light, but if you're in NY you'll be out all day doing things anyway. Silvia and Ty were super nice, helping me out when I messed up my booking and letting me store my luggage in their garage. 5 stars!
Jun 27, 2019Clean simple place to stay. A little bit further out than I had anticipated from the city, but not at all far from the subway station. Took at least 1 hr to get into the city and longer to get back later at night because that train wasn't running straight through The host was nice and helpful, with plenty of information about the area.
Jun 27, 2019Silvia is a kind and easy going host - she was contactable and available throughout our stay, but she gave us our privacy and we rarely saw her. The apartment was nice - small but clean and had everything we needed. There was a hairdryer which was useful! Silvia also has a folder which has information on the area and a map with good local bars/restaurants for people who may not know the area. There are lots of great cafes etc close by, and the food almost everywhere is excellent! The only downside to the apt is its entrance through the garage, but you do get used to it. If there are people staying in her other apartment above it may be noisy! We had people staying above us near the end of our stay, and I don't think they realised the noise they made really travelled. This wasn't a huge problem for us, but for those who need peace and quiet 24/7 it may not be ideal. The apt is close to 2 L train stops as well as the M train, and it was very easy to get about. Some blocks around the Bushwick area felt a little unsafe at night when we walked through them, but we had no trouble at all.
Jun 27, 2019Silvia is a wonderful host. We stayed with her during super-storm Sandy, which was pretty intense. Silvia was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. The basement is cozy and user-friendly. Silvia's husband and two kids are really wonderful as well. Her husband's elegant sculptures are positioned thoughtfully through the space, combining disparate found materials with recycled consumer products. We highly recommend this apartment.
Jun 27, 2019I had a great time staying in Sylvia's apartment. It was very convenient getting around Brooklyn with the L and M trains a short walk away. There are some great food options nearby, had a great meal at Roberta's pizza as well as a local taco restaurant. As I was attending conference in Brooklyn, this was a great place to relax after a long day of work. The apartment was generally quiet, but there was a bit of noise from the apartment upstairs which didn't bother me all that much. If I attend the conference next year I will definitely be checking to see if Sylvia's place is available.
Jun 27, 2019My boyfriend and I stayed here for 7 nights to visit NYC on vacation. We definitely enjoyed staying at Silvia's basement apartment in Brooklyn and would do it again! It was a good deal and Silvia was very nice and accommodating. Using the subway, it took us about 50 minutes to get to Times Square, 35 minutes to get to the financial district, 1 hour 40 minutes to get to LaGuardia airport (if you take a taxi, it costs about $34). The subway station is a few blocks from the apartment, about a 10 min walk. The neighborhood seems a bit sketchy and unsafe at first, but after staying there a while (often coming back late), I've found it to be pretty safe and every night, a police car would drive around. The place is exactly as you see in pictures, water was always hot, and the heater was effective, WiFi was fast, but the only thing that was a bit of a surprise to me was that the bedroom is the only room that you can lock off as your own. The bathroom and kitchen sink area are technically left open, as you don't get a key for these places, but I assume no one is really supposed to come down while we are staying there. Also, you can definitely hear the people upstairs walking and the pipes make some noise, but it didn't bother us too much as neither of us are light sleepers and we were always dead tired when we came back from the city. All in all, had a great experience and strongly recommend staying at Silvia's, especially if you want to save money on hotels!
Jun 27, 2019We stayed in Silvia's apartment for 6 days. Great base to see New York from. Very nice apartment, convenient, cozy and friendly hosts.
Jun 27, 2019Checked in on Thursday, and Silvia stayed out of our hair the whole time we were there (excellent). The apartment is not luxurious but it's nice enough, because we weren't in NYC to sit around all day. There was some noise that woke us up in the very early morning, but other than that our stay was very enjoyable.
Jun 27, 2019cozy space that served as a great little base for my brief time in NYC
Jun 27, 2019Silvia was accommodating and the unit was clean and convenient. We stayed for a looong time - 11 nights! The private entrance is accessed first into the foyer then through the garage, then down the stairs past the washer and we had no problems with coming in late nights. Partway through our stay some other people came to staying in the other unit she has upstairs and you could definitely hear them but nothing too bad. Shower is small, but again, everything was clean and functional (hot water, wifi, heater, etc.). Great to have the mini-fridge and there was also a toaster oven, electric kettle, coffee maker, etc. and we were able to do a quick load of laundry partway through the stay which was nice (I never heard anyone else doing laundry, but the machine is loud). There is a lock on the bedroom door but not to the main kitchen/bathroom area, though, again, we never saw anyone in the garage or laundry area and I don't expect anyone came into our area. Bed was fairly comfy - firm - and there are now nightstands on both sides of the bed. Lots of great stuff in the area and Silvia provides a binder and map of her favorite bars, restaurants and cultural activities in the area. Several different subway stations within easy walking distance. Would definitely stay again - if you're looking to stay in Brooklyn this is a great, affordable and convenient option.
Jun 27, 2019All in all a very good experience staying at Silvia's. Silvia and her husband were really friendly and helpful. They live in a nice area away from the touristy city center, close to restaurants and bars. Their recommendations really helped us to explore the area. Everything worked fine as to communication, check-in etc. There was always someone around if we wanted to ask something, but they never disturbed us. As to the room, it was everything we expected, as shown in the pictures. I would recommend staying here!
Jun 27, 2019Silvia and Ty are very friendly, and their cute little basement apartment was a wonderful oasis at the end of long days (and nights) of exploring. We really loved the neighborhood, an excellent mix of fancy and funky, and the tips provided by the hosts really helped to make sense of them all. There is so much good food around that the efficiency-style kitchen was perfect--who cooks when they're visiting NYC anyway? Clean, comfortable, and private. We were there for a week and only saw others in the building one time. A perfect haven. We'll definitely be looking at their place next time we head to Brooklyn!
Jun 27, 2019Just what we expected! Nice little appartment in the basement, private bathroom and kitchenette. Bed was comfy. Silvia stayed pretty much out of our hair, but was available for questions. We were able to use the washing machine and dryer. Three subway stations in walking distance and a lot of shops and restaurants in the area. All in all enjoyable stay!
Jun 27, 2019We are a young couple and we stayed in late May for three days. A great little apartment in the heart of Bushwick. Easy to get around and the host was fantastic! Check out Roberta's- a great little pizza place in the neighbourhood.
Jun 27, 2019Had a great stay in Bushwick! Silvia and her husband were very accommodating. I was on my own, but the apartment is the perfect size for two people. The bedroom was a very comfortable size and the bathroom was spotless. It was a bit further out than I thought from Manhattan, but I spent a lot of time in Brooklyn on this trip so it was very convenient. Thanks again Silvia!
Jun 27, 2019Clean and cozy! Silvia is a great host; she is available for questions and guidance while respecting your privacy. The apartment has the necessities for a pleasant stay in Brooklyn. It's in a good location with lots to do.
Jun 27, 2019Me and my friend stayed at Silvia's place for a week. We were out most of the day and there was no problem getting in late. The area is really nice. Silvia gave us a map marked with interesting things to do and see as well as places to go eat. We found some great cafes! The metro is close and the lovely Williamsburg is only a few stops away.
Jun 27, 2019Our stay in Silvia's basement was great. The bed was comfy and everything was very clean. Communication was easy and fast. We loved the area as it felt safe, was well connected to public transport and there was loads going on. Also, the hair dryer for guests was a nice touch as my English one didn't work in the US!
Jun 27, 2019We really enjoyed our stay in Silvia's apartment. It was clean and relatively quiet and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay - bathroom, aircon, small fridge and coffee maker, small toaster oven. It's a short walk to the subway L and M lines, we always felt safe walking around the neighbourhood, we had no trouble at all. Silvia provides a map for her guests with local eateries and galleries etc that she recommends and we were never disappointed with her choices! Bushwick looks like there isn't much going on, but you just need to know where to look! Silvia was really prompt and helpful in her emails. She was out of town with her family when we visited and she arranged for a friend to let us in and show us around and everything went smoothly. Regretfully in our hurry to get to the airport for an international flight, my husband and I forgot to return the apartment keys! This never happens to us! We felt dreadful about it :( Thanks for the great stay! Next time we visit we'd love to stay again.
Jun 27, 2019Well I guess this is very New York: Really small apartment and a relatively high price - seen in realtion of course. Pretty loud since there are people living directly over the bedroom, the street and the washing mashine/dryer right there, where the stairs go down - yes, it's in the cellar. No fair-trade tee or coffee as told in the announcement and the kitchen does not need to be mentioned. Everything else worked out well, got the key and a little map with tips what to do was really nice. Unfortunately did not get the chance to meet Silvia, but I guess she is a nice person.
Jun 27, 2019The place was very well located and very clean. Perfect for a couple looking to spend a week in NYC. Silvia and her husband were very kind and helpful towards everything. Next time I visit NYC I would have no doubts on contacting them again. I recommend it 100%.
Jun 27, 2019The apartment was nice, comfortable and clean, just a short walk from the L train subway station. Silvia was helpful, easy to communicate and always responded quickly. Overall we had a very pleasant stay. Thank you again, Silvia!
Jun 27, 2019My wife and I had a wonderful stay at Silvia's place. It is located just minutes from the Jefferson Street station on the "L"line. It was perfect for all our needs.They have a great WiFi connection and the shower water pressure was strong and hot. You must go to Roberta's for the gourmet pizza, which is to die for. It's very popular, so expect a long wait. We went on a Sunday for brunch with no wait. New coffee houses and old bakery's are within a few minutes walk. Enjoy Bushwick!!!!
Jun 27, 2019Appartamento come da foto, piccolo e poco (Website hidden by Airbnb) sacrificio per una piccola vacanza si può anche fare...poco pulito però, abbiamo fatto noi le pulizie e siamo rimasti delusi dall'apparente entrata per raggiungere il basement, passare per un garage fatto deposito non è il massimo per gli amanti della pulizia. Tutto questo non è menzionato nelle specifiche. Il bagno è nuovo e discreto rispetto al resto dell'abitazione. Padroni di casa disponibili ma un pò rumorosi, casa ben posizionata per raggiungere la metro.
Jun 27, 2019I had a wonderful stay at Silvia's! She was incredibly accommodating and also provided an awesome guide (and map) to the area. The room was clean and private, and also conveniently located. I will definitely consider this as a prime option if I am ever back in the area! (Thanks Silvia!!)
Jun 27, 2019Nous avons ete tres bien accueillis ! De tres bonnes adresses ! L'endroit etait treq sympa, quartier tres agreable, lit au top et nous en avions besoin apres les longues marches de la journee !
Jun 27, 2019Close and convenient to pretty much anywhere we needed to go. 15 minutes to Manhattan, 5-10 minutes to Brooklyn. It was perfect for us and close proximity to family. Did not spend much time at the actual room, but was comfortable and appropriate. Hosts were great and provided all necessary information. Allowed us to check in early and were super accommodating.
Jun 27, 2019Silvia and Ty's garden apartment unit was the perfect quiet respite for a busy week in New York. It is a short stroll to several subway stops and bus routes that got us around. The space was very private with our own keys, stocked with amenities in the bathroom, coffee and kitchenware, and a concierge folder for restaurant and other neighborhood recommendations for the Bushwick area that proved very helpful. Hangers, umbrellas, and lots of thoughtful small details that made us feel provided for and. Original artwork and custom metal fixtures by the artists who own the place made the unit very welcoming and unique. My partner and I spent several happy days there and would gladly recommend it to others.
Jun 27, 2019Very nice stay at Silvia and Ty's place. It was private and I really liked the neighborhood.
Jun 27, 2019Had a great stay with everything we needed at our finger tips. Silvia and Ty were great hosts. It was very private and just what we needed for the few hours we spent in the apartment. Great price in nice/safe location.
Jun 27, 2019Silvia and her family were very welcoming. We felt very safe, and slept great ! The basement was clean, the shower hot, the kitchen area stocked with basics. We did not hear any noise above us, so it was a quiet retreat at the end of the days roaming around the city. Bushwick also is a very cool neighborhood, and easy to walk around, and get to subway. I was prepared for the going thru the garage because of other reviews....but it's not for anyone elderly. Furnishings are modest, concrete floor, simple bedding. I would return to this spot again.
Jun 27, 2019amazing stay, and great neighborhood! i would pay more
Jun 27, 2019Silvia had a notebook full of neighborhood suggestions and info to browse through when we arrived. The apartment was clean and looked just how we imagined it. It really felt like our own little apartment for a week. Our hosts were very accommodating and friendly.
Jun 27, 2019My wife and I stayed for a week while we toured the city. We had complete privacy in the nice and cool basement space. The neighborhood offers a good variety of places restaurants and cafes to choose from. The L train is not too far of a walk, so access to Manhattan is not too difficult. Silvia's place also had wifi and a great shower. The only thing I wish we had were a couple more pillows, other than that our stay at Silvia's was very nice.
Jun 27, 2019Silvia and Ty were very accommodating and hospitable. The apartment was pretty easy to find and close to several trains, including the L, which we took frequently. The list of suggestions our hosts had was great and really appreciated. The apartment was perfect for what we needed-- a cozy, safe place to crash after a busy day of exploring. I hope to stay again in the future!
Jun 27, 2019Silvia was great at keeping in touch and made it easy for our late evening check in. We really like the neighbourhood, and Silvia obviously does too, as she gave great local recommendations. It is so well-priced, so don't expect the bells and whistles, and you'll have a nice time.
Jun 27, 2019Quick, easy, nice, fun location, really cool art all over the place.
Jun 27, 2019The pros : + confortable room and nice bathroom + location near the L train + kind and understanding host The cons : - needs a bit refurbishment - messy garage, but that's art ;-)
Jun 27, 2019We so enjoyed our stay at Silvia and Ty's place! The apartment was very clean, private, spacious, and adorable. Silvia was a great host, very responsive and even provided us with a binder full of information about the area, and the location was perfect- quiet but very close to trains and everything to do in Bushwick/Brooklyn. We would love to stay at the Tripoli house again the next time we visit the city!
Jun 27, 2019Me and my sister had wonderful time in Silvia's apartment. She is very warm and kind for us. The basement is enough size for two, very clean, cute and warm!. Easy walk to a few stations(L & M lines) and shops. Washing machine and dryer was very helpful too. Thanks Silvia :)
Jun 27, 2019Conveniently located near the L line. Feels private with own way to get in. Comfy bed.
Jun 27, 2019We enjoyed a lot our week at Silvia bassement. The apartment was clean and smart. There is a stair not suitable for elder people. The area is quiet and very close to subway station direct to union square. This is good conection too with JFK airport. Wifi is good and we have no problems there. Thanks a lot for all Silvia!!!!
Jun 27, 2019Nice cozy basement. Great area with good resturants, food store and close to subway stations. Silvia was very nice and there was no problems staying there at all. I would totally recommend this place.
Jun 27, 2019Silvia's basement apartment was cute, quiet, private, cozy and clean!!! We felt right at home with all of the extras she provided. Let us drop off our bags early, and leave them hours after we checked out. So convenient and overall a great experience. I would definitely recommend staying here!
Jun 27, 2019I personally met with the owner, she was very sweet and warm. I felt really comfortable staying in her own. Everything was accurate in the description. It is a basement apartment, so there are "basement" sounds. But other than that, it was a great place to stay in Brooklyn.
Jun 27, 2019Silvia made it easy for us to check into the apartment. This apartment was just two blocks from our daughters and it was quite a comfortable walk, as comfortable as can be in 10 degrees in January winter
Jun 27, 2019Great little space for my weekend trip. Silvia and Ty were very responsive when I needed something and there was limited noise. No street noise, but you can definitely here vacuuming, walking, if anything drops. It is a basement after all! But definitely would stay here again
Jun 27, 2019Siamo stati accolti dal marito di Silvia, Ty, che ci ha lasciato le chiavi e mostrato la stanza. La zona è tranquilla e la metro vicina. Il letto è comodo, ma la stanza era davvero troppo umida. Probabilmente è meglio d'estate.
Jun 27, 2019We had a great stay at Silvia's apartment! It is close too many great restaurants and bars. It's also close to the train that goes in too Manhattan. Silvia was helpful if we had any questions about the area as well.
Jun 27, 2019It was easy to communicate with the hosts to arrange my check-in time. The description of the apartment is accurate. It is very basic, but comfortable. The lighting was good, the bed was comfortable, there was plenty of hot water and towels, and the wifi worked well. Kitchenette is very basic, not set up for serious cooking, but it was nice to have a fridge. The weather was quite hot during my stay, but the fan in the bedroom cooled things off at night so that I had no trouble sleeping. It was also very quiet.
Jun 27, 2019The apartment was clean and the host was kind and attentive. The only downside was that the bed was a bit hard and the room a bit hot. The price was worth it, though!
Jun 27, 2019Silvia was great, and allowed me to check in early because my flight arrived at 6:00 AM. The place is exactly how described. Nice, clean, new bathroom, small kitchenette, just enough for a weekend trip. The bedding and towels were clean. There were hangers and a place to hang clothes. The apartment is small, and can only accommodate two people. It is in the basement, and was a bit warm in mid-September, but there is a good fan that kept us cool at night. Great location, quiet neighborhood, only a few blocks from the Central subway station. Lots of places to eat, and unwind. There a good grocery store very close by. There is a bus stop just outside the house. Silvia also has a very extensive map of the neighborhood, with restaurants, bars and coffee shops, and other points of interest identified. Nice place, close to my son's apartment, and made our trip less complicated.
Jun 27, 2019We had a great time at Silvia's cute apartment. The room is in the basement and was very quiet at night. We had a private shower (as well as towels) and a small kitchen. There was has a lot of restaurants nearby and the apartment is also close to the orange and silver lines to Manhattan.
Jun 27, 2019Modest living. Great for backpackers/travelers.
Jun 27, 2019This was a great place in a great location. Nice and secluded so you have your own space and they let us drop off our suitcases early so we could do some sightseeing.
Jun 27, 2019A really nice area and a perfect space to rest up between busy New York trips. Really great for young couples or travellers wanting to experience Brooklyn rather than the more touristy Manhatten. Really recommended
Jun 27, 2019Silvia est accueillante , l'appartement est très sympat dans un quartier agréable.
Jun 27, 2019Incredible value! We've never stayed in Bushwick before, usually preferring Brooklyn Heights. That area has become too pricey, so we took a chance on Bushwick, hearing it's become fun and eclectic and safer. It was all of that, plus friendly and felt safe. Absolutely enjoyable area, more than enough coffee shops and restaurants to walk to, and we also walked a lot to nearby Williamsburg, with even more opportunities for great dining. Silvia and her family were wonderful; we enjoyed meeting her smart and charming daughter and her interesting artist husband, who maintains an art studio next-door that you can visit. This basement apartment is reached through a narrow passageway in a full storage garage, which might be off-putting at first, but don't be fooled: you come down the stairs and into a clean, spacious and minimal apartment. It is basic, but has everything you need. Extra toiletries, toaster oven, coffee maker, extra comforter, etc. There's a groovy custom-made bench and iron table to sit at for a quick snack or some sightseeing planning. Silvia provides a three-ring binder with neighborhood menus and house rules. Try El Kucho, just on the next block, *great* Mexican & nice owners. At this time, they have not yet received their liquor license, but about five doors down on the same spot is a great wine store. Archie's, a nearby bar and pizza spot is a great alternative to the 1-2 hour wait at famous Roberta's pizza. One or two reviewers here have said that it was warm down there in the summer. The weather was cool during our visit, so we weren't too warm. The temperature was really perfect. There are two small windows in case you feel claustrophobic, but we never did. She has decorated it in a way that feels airy. At any rate, we were out of our room early and back late, enjoying Brooklyn! The bed and pillows are quite firm, but we slept well. You are in a basement; expect upstairs noise. I am a very light sleeper, so I always bring earplugs; noise wasn't a problem. I don't see how anyone could get a better value in Brooklyn, so close to Brooklyn Heights. I doubt we will ever stay anywhere else again. I see myself coming back here year after year!
Jun 27, 2019Perfect inexpensive place to sleep and keep your things while spending time in Brooklyn/New York City. The apartment is in the basement of a house, but has all the basics - real bed, bathroom, mini-fridge. Youll be spending all your time exploring the city anyway, so this little spot is the best deal if you just want a private space to lay your head at the end of the day. The neighborhood is great as well - it's a 10 minute walk to the nearest L stop, and close to lots of great Bushwick restaurants and bars as well.
Jun 27, 2019Host was communinative and helpful to our arrival. Directions were provided from port authority.
Jun 27, 2019I enjoyed my stay. It was a nice private space with everything I needed. Thanks!
Jul 27, 2019Silvia's home was just what I needed. The apartment was right near the gallery I was presenting at. Which was also very convenient. Excellent communication from the get go. Thank you.
Jun 27, 2019The place was easy to find at a 15-minute walk from Jefferson St metro. We were stuck in traffic on the way to NYC, but texted the hosts on our way and had no problem arriving later than we had told them originally. As listed, the place is a basement, but it is not an entirely separate apartment, with the entrance being through a garage used as storage space and quite crowded. Also, being in the basement there is no central heating, but a small space heater. Furthermore, being next to the furnaces and pipes there is quite a bit of noise during the night, and steps from the kids in the morning. The mini-kitchen is less than what would be expected from an "entire apartment"; to be fair it is as listed, but it is not possible to cook or even heat a frozen pizza, since there is no stove or oven, so it's not possible to have more than a simple breakfast.
Jun 27, 2019Silvia was very accommodating especially with the checking in/out process. This little apartment is perfect if you want somewhere to stay at night while you spend your days out & about in the city. It's in the heart of Bushwick where you are not too far from the rest of Brooklyn, and not too far away from Manhattan, either. It had the essentials, including heat and a fan. The bathroom is cute, as well. This space is perfect for two people. Keep in mind, you're in a basement, so you hear everything going on above you, but that comes with any basement apartment. It was a lovely stay & I will definitely keep Silvia & her husband's space in mind if I ever find myself in the Brooklyn area.
Jun 27, 2019Very good, quiet place to stay. Had all needed amenities (no microwave though) and some great restaurants nearby. Pretty close to the subway too, ~20-30 minutes to downtown Manhattan. Sylvia was very welcoming and accommodating. Would definitely stay there again.
Jun 27, 2019Silvia and her partner Ty were really nice, reactive and available. The accomodation corresponds to the description, it's pretty minimalist and is located in the basement and accessible via a pretty packed garage and laundry room. It has a separate bedroom, a private bathroom and a small kitchenette with mini fridge and coffee maker (keep in mind that there is no stove for cooking so you can't cook dinner or even have dinner in the basement - no windows and no proper table to enjoy a meal). The bedroom is just under their apartment so you hear the lovely kids jumping around in the morning :) The area is nice, very fancy restaurants and bars, I would recomment 983 Café, Forest Park, Sea Wolf, Momo Sushi Shack, Roberta's etc. Silvia and Ty will give you a very useful recap of the bars/cafes/restaurants nearby the basement, vith (Hidden by Airbnb) maps so you can see where they are located. Very very useful thank you! You are near the L line (Jefferson Street) and the M line (Central Av) so you have several options to reach Manhattant. Amazing street art in the area, great vibes in the Latin American barber shops where they dance while working, groceries stores available, definitely a good area. Enjoy!!!!
Jun 27, 2019Non abbiamo conosciuto Silvia ma siamo stati accolti e sempre in contatto con Tyrome, persona accogliente gentile e disponibile. Appartamentino nel seminterrato della casa ci si accede passando attraverso un garage abbastanza disordinato, ma passato quello la casa si presenta pulita, ordinata, piccola ma accogliente arredata con numerose opere d'arte costruite con materiali di riciclo e metalli dallo stesso Tyrome che è un artista. Nota positiva la vicinanza alla Metro. Unica nota negativa i vicini piuttosto rumorosi.. Il quartiere non ha l aspetto dei migliori quartieri di Brooklyn ma tutto sommato è tranquillo, tappezzato di locali e negozietti vari.
Jun 27, 2019Ty was there to welcome us when we arrived. The place was exactly as he described. There are local stations to take the train.
Jun 27, 2019Tyrone's place was the perfect location and just what we needed.
Jun 27, 2019We had a great time at Tu's studio. The studio was clean, confortable and exactly as shown in the photos. Ty was very kind and welcoming. Location is perfect if you wish to see the NYC and have fun in Brooklyn, Williamsburg and Bushwick. Totally recommend! Thanks again for everything!
Jun 27, 2019Thank you for a good experience. We were so close to our daughter and the subway. We would definitely stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019Our stay at Tyrome's was great! As anyone who's been to NYC might know, despite being awesome, the city can also be chaotic and tiresome at times, and Tyrome's basement was a perfect peaceful and private place to rest after a long day. Bushwick is a nice and interesting neighborhood with lots of places to go and see in itself, and Tyrome had a lot of great recommendations on nearby cafes, restaurants etc. We didn't actually see Tyrome much during our stay but he was always available and nice if we had any questions or problems.
Jun 27, 2019We had an amazing time in Tyrome's place. We didn't have much direct contact with Tyrome, but when we did, he was super friendly and helpful. The apartment itself is fairly basic, but I think this is reflected in the price. There is so much to do in Bushwick (amazing restaurants, bars and events) that we just used the place for sleeping. Would definitely recommend!!
Jun 27, 2019Tyrome was very welcoming and we had overall a nice stay. The accomodation matches the pictures and it is located in the basement and accessible via a pretty packed garage and laundry room. It's a quiet place to stay and close to the J and M subway line to go to Manhattan (about 20 min).
Jun 27, 2019Todo es igual que en las fotos, el espacio era justo lo que necesitabamos para nuestra estadia. Tyrome y Silvia son simpaticos, se preocuparon de estar para recibirnos, y se aseguraron que todo estuviera a nuestra conveniencia. Incluso, ellos hicieron un librito que compila los mejores lugares para ir a comer o tomar algo por el barrio, eso junto con el mapa de las ubicaciones. El barrio es muy buena onda, con mucho arte y varios bares. Es seguro como para salir o llegar a cualquier hora.
Jun 27, 2019Place was great and as described. Tyrome was a nice guy. Thanks!
Jun 27, 2019Ty was a really approachable friendly host, this is definitely a rough and ready listing but has all the basics you need.
Jun 27, 2019just correct :)
Jul 27, 2019The apartment was in a fantastic location, close to 3 subway lines. It was (Email hidden by Airbnb) munication with Ty was quick and he let us store our bags in his garage for a couple hours after we checked out. The apartment itself was pretty basic. No soap to wash dishes that we could find. No microwave. It was pretty warm when we were there too, we didn't realize until the last night that there is a fan in the bedroom, stored behind a dresser.
Jun 27, 2019The place is as described. Located 7-10 minutes by foot from the subway (M and L)
Jun 27, 2019Comfortable stay, short walk to subway stations.
Jun 27, 2019Nice place, cozy and private. 8 min walk from metro station. We only saw Tyrome the first day, he is very nice and helpful.
Jun 27, 2019Tyrome was an excellent host - letting us drop off our bags at the apartment before the check-in time so that we could wander off, and letting us leave them again at the end, as our flight didn't leave until the evening. He was great with communication as well. The apartment is in a great location - about a 15 min walk to the nearest subway, which takes you through Brooklyn to Manhattan. It was a brilliant base for exploring the city. The neighbourhood itself is also great - lots of independent bars, cafes and quirky shops, as well as some superb restaurants. The apartment itself is as it looks in the photos - pretty shabby chic. You have the basement floor to yourself (but share the main entrance door with the rest of the house) which includes the bedroom, a small bathroom and a little kitchenette with a sink, kettle and fridge. But why would you need more than that when there are so many world-class restaurants and take-outs in the city? All in all, Tyrome's was great value - a perfect place to crash after days of exploring NYC. I would recommend staying here!
Jun 27, 2019Todo estaba tal y como se describe en el anuncio. Buena comunicación de transporte. Tyrome nos dejo una carpeta con bastante información de la zona, la cual nos sirvió de bastante ayuda.
Jun 27, 2019Tyrome is one of the best hosts I've ever had on AirBnB...he not only let us check-in early on the day we arrived, he was also very understanding when our trip ended with an unfortunate illness and he was more than understanding to allow me to stay in the room the few extra hours that made all the difference in helping me rest and catch my trans-atlantic flight. Tyrome thank you so much, you are very kind and generous, and my partner and I really enjoyed our stay in your cosy and unique little flat, a perfect getaway to Brooklyn and Manhattan and a quiet and warm place to come back to after a day and night exploring the city! The list of local bars and restaurants was also great for exploring all the great places around Bushwick.
Jun 27, 2019My boyfriend and I stayed here for a.few days since we wanted to explore NYC. The apartment is a basement apartment in their home, and aa such, it did get a little noisy above our heads sometimes. The good: Great location. There's a bus that comes right in front of house and it's a 10 minute walk to train station. Also, when you get into the apartment, host has a book which gives you suggestions of food toneat in the area. Very helpful. They also have a whole setup of toiletries, irons, hair dryera, toaster oven, etc. For you to use! There's also a heater which was great because it was very cold. The not so great: the walls could use cleaning. I only looked at them once and didn't want to again. Also, the blankets provided have some spots on them so that freaked me out. Finally, when he says small, it's verrrry small and people over 6'0 might be uncomfortable in the space. Overall, a pretty good experience.
Jun 27, 2019A nice cozy kitchenette in a historic area in BK. I was welcomed by Tyrome and his 2 children at the door. That was the only time we crossed paths during my stay. It is a basement apartment so you will hear the typical noises such as pipes and boiler but nothing loud and crazy. I will be booking again in the future.
Jun 27, 2019Another great stay. Wouldn't choose another host.
Jun 27, 2019The pics do more justice to the place when your actually there. The issue for us was that it was listed and confirmed in messages that the place is 'private', however when my partner was alone in the basement, someone was at the top of the stairs doing the laundry, meaning they could easily come downstairs where there is no lock. We decided to check out early and although I paid for the extra 2 nights, my issue was the lack of courtesy communication from the host. I wrote 2 very honest messages (nice one too) about why we wanted to check out and there was no response and although I didn't expect it, it just felt the host wasn't bothered. Just the lack of courtesy is a result of this review, although I can put up with the fact the place wasn't as described.
Jun 27, 2019Wouldn't stay anywhere else in brooklyn but here. Great host.
Jun 27, 2019Great place to stay for short trips to the city. So many things I didn't know I'd need were provided, including a list of all the local restaurants/bars and art galleries. He made it really easy for us to settle in.
Jun 27, 2019You get what you pay for. There is noise from the heating and the apartment is in the basement, it is a fact. Tyrome was a very friendly host and we indeed had a good stay.
Jun 27, 2019Nice short stay! Good area good food good people!
Jun 27, 2019Great place! Cute apartment, perfect for place to stay to enjoy Brooklyn and Manhattan. If you are just looking for the basics, a bed and a bathroom, this is it. If we were staying longer and were looking to stay in and cook or anything, this is too small for that. But since we wanted to explore all day, this is all we needed, and the price is right. Tyrome was very kind and had an awesome art gallery that you walk through to get to the apartment. There were two locking doors so we felt safe. The neighborhood is amazing, right next to Alphaville which is a cool bar and venue. The walk to the Jefferson stop is a bit of a hike for those who arent used to walking like a new yorker, but overall it was close enough to everything. I would stay here again for sure!
Jun 27, 2019If you didn't notice it through the pictures, that's a cave! A real cave that you access through a garage. The building pipes make a lot of noise. But if you are in town to enjoy what has to offer the big apple, not staying home, it could worth it. Let's say that's one of the less expensive (not cheapest, the place is not that cheap) apartment around. And the apartment looks more as a private bedroom than full apartment.
Jun 27, 2019Everything was great, thank you!
Jun 27, 2019Very unobtrusive host! You pass through storage area to get to apartment, but it's not too bad. Tyrome left tips about neightborhood in his little purple book, and andswered questions quickly! I read some people complaining about 10m walk to train station. This is NYC. Better be ready to do some walking whenever you get out. Otherwise take a taxi or bus right in front of the apartment.
Jun 27, 2019The space is large for New York, the hosts are quite private and give you space, which was good. The linen a pillows were lower end, but everything else was nice and we were happy with our stay.
Jun 27, 2019Tyrome has been a nice host and helped us out wherever he could! The appartement was very basic, but functional. Definetly a good choice for a low budget, but maybe not suitable for people who expect a cozy and super comfortable place. We weren't a lot at home anyway, so for us it was perfect! :) thanks to Tyrome again!
Jun 27, 2019Great cozy space and Ty was very accommodating.
Jun 27, 2019Perfecte locatie om Brooklyn te verkennen. De wijk Bushwick is fantastisch en zeer zeker de moeite waard om verder te verkennen. Goede uitval locatie om in Manhattan te komen. Goede metro verbinding, alles is op loopafstand. Het appartement was precies zoals op de foto's. Heel rustig in de avond/nacht, wij hebben nauwelijks wat gehoord. Onze eerste dagen was het koud, dus het kacheltje was erg fijn! Ty is een goede host en erg duidelijk in zijn communicatie! Leuk om hem nog een paar keer gezien te hebben en ook dan is hij zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam
Jun 27, 2019Gives you the essentials. Owner is very responsive.
Jun 27, 2019Nice place, clean, great area, near subway line!
Jun 27, 2019Même si nous avons eu un effet de surprise en pénétrant d'abord dans l'appartement (il faut traverser une pièce débarras avant de descendre à la cave, puis on retrouve l'appartement avec plancher en béton non fini !), nous nous sommes rapidement rendus compte des atouts du lieu : propreté impeccable, fraîcheur même s'il faisait 40C dehors, douche agréable, silence et noirceur pour la nuit... Nous n'avons pas rencontré notre hôte, mais la communication avec lui fût cordiale, simple et facile. Je déconseillerais si vous aimez vous attarder longuement chez vous avant de sortir faire des activités, puisque l'endroit est sans charme, mais si comme nous vous préférez aller parcourir brooklyn ou manhattan de votre éveil jusqu'au coucher, cet appartement situé prêt de tout, frais(!), propre et très abordable vous rendra aussi heureuses que nous !
Jun 27, 2019This was a great find in Brooklyn, and we were very happy in the few days we spent there. The neighborhood is great, close to the subway (about a 10m walk). Lots of shops & restaurants nearby. We met up with family during our stay and ended up walking back from the subway at 1 or 2 in the morning a couple times with no problems. It's a big city so you need to pay attention, but overall it's a GREAT neighborhood. We also drove there (on a road trip so couldn't skip having a car) and found street parking our entire stay- which was an awesome bonus. The area isn't huge but is great for NYC. My husband is pretty tall (over 6') but he just watched his head and was fine. The bathroom is small (but really cute for a small space!) and the shower is great. You are in a basement, and we were there in summer so it was fairly humid inside and out, but the price, location and awesome host outweighed it. We would DEFINITELY stay here again, in a heart beat.
Jun 27, 2019Tyrome's place was exactly what we were looking for in Brooklyn. It was a quiet and private studio in the basement of his home. We loved how close it was to so many restaurants and cafes. The studio was clean and had everything we needed to be comfortable. We had an issue with the keys one night and Tyrome was super responsive and made sure we got in okay. I would recommend this place to anyone who is trying to explore Bushwick and get away from the noise of the city.
Jun 27, 2019Este espaço é um lugar perfeito para quem busca um local simples e bom para dormir. Não dispõe de grandes luxos. Estranhamos o local de entrada, pois fica atravessando uma garagem bem bagunçada e suja. Em compensação, o quarto é limpo. O local fica perto de duas paradas de metro que levam à Mannhatan. Não é tão prático que nem ficar na ilha, mas é uma forma excelente de economizar para gastar em outras coisas. Tyrome como anfitrião foi excelente, prontamente respondendo as mensagens. Pontos altos: banho excelente, dispõe de máquina de lavar roupas, secador de cabelos e cafeteira.
Jun 27, 2019Ty's place is a basement room as described so expect all that comes with that. Can get a bit noisy from upstairs foot traffic. Didn't bother us much but if you're a light sleeper I can see how that may be an issue. It did have a faint odor but again, it's a basement. The location was great if you're looking to check out the Bushwick/Bed-Stuy area. There's lots to do and see all around Ty's place. L train is about 3 blocks away if you're looking to head to the city. This is gonna be one of those spots where you rest your head at night after a full day of exploring not so much of a place to hang out at. Ty is a super chill guy and made everything easy.
Jun 27, 2019Great host, great little spot.
Jun 27, 2019The apartment is overall decent, but was definitely not what we expected from the impression we got through pictures and description. The apartment had a changing odor from being the laundry room and the basement, meaning that it smelled part time of detergent and part time of moist. Furthermore we didn't have the opportunity to lock the basement door, which we didn't feel good about, due to all of our personal belongings being down there throughout the day. But in general a decent apartment, where you get what you pay for. Really nice and friendly host though. Tyrome was very helpful, both in person and through text messages. The neighborhood is something of itself. It's a very cool place to be located, if you want to experience Brooklyn, and everything it has to offer.
Jun 27, 2019El apartamento es mucho más bonito en fotos que en la realidad. Accedes por un garaje que está super descolocado. Es un sotano que huele mucho a humedad. No entra casi luz. Las dos únicas ventanas son minúsculas y se oye todo lo de la calle. La cama está humeda. El dueño vive en la casa (en la planta de arriba). Ni se despidió de nosotros. Un poco cutre todo y muy bizarro, eso sí. Muy bien comunicado con el centro con la línea L.
Jun 27, 2019Lively neighborhood, great host! Thank you!
Jun 27, 2019Everything was just as we expected it to be. Tyrome is a very nice guy, and an interesting artist. Though the apartment is in the basement, it wasn't very humid, and Tyrome made everything to make it comfy. We had a nice stay in the very artsy and nice community in Brooklyn. The L train is nearby and Tyrome has a lot of suggestions for activities and places to eat/go out close to the apartment on a cute selfmade (Hidden by Airbnb) map he put into the apartment. The apartment is quite quiet, but you can hear the people above you, which didn't bother us, but if you're sensitive it might disturb your sleep. All in all it was very nice, and we would come back everytime.
Jun 27, 2019This basement studio/apartment is great for the solo adventure traveler or a young couple who want to be in the heart of Brooklyn. That being said, it is not a place you want to hang out in more than sleeping and using it as a base. The water pressure is great and the extra area between the bedroom and bathroom was helpful for space and food area. Tyrome was a wonderful accommodating host and I enjoyed talking with him about his art and life in Brooklyn. He also has a cool apartment for rent above the space with mid century furniture if its available it is a great bargain for the space.
Jun 27, 2019Fantastic communication with the host, however we were a little disappointed with the level of noise, cleanliness & bed linen during our 3 night stay.
Jun 27, 2019Tyrome's place is cool. It's a little different and quirky, but has everything you need. It's easily walkable to public transport, take-out and what looked to be pretty good nightlife. If we'd had a longer stay I'm sure we'd have checked it out!
Jun 27, 2019Un séjour parfait, l appartement de Tyrome était conforme à l annonce, super bien placé dans un quartier vivant et pittoresque. Metro et commerces à proximité, je recommande vivement cet appartement.
Jun 27, 2019Overall, Tyrome's apartment is a great place to stay. It's reasonably priced and it's in a cool part of town. Also, catching the L into Manhattan is super easy as there are a few stations that are walking distance from the apartment. Probably not the best place for an extended stay where you plan on cooking meals at home, but it was great for a few nights.
Jun 27, 2019Tres bon rapport qualité prix. Adapté si vous comptez partir tôt et rentrer tard après le dîner. L appartement est très bruyant et très humide. L'emplacement permet d accéder rapidement à Manhattan et de profiter des bars et restaurants de brooklyn.
Jun 27, 2019Very artistic neighborhood, he supplied us with a list of things to do in the area such as dining, entertainment, etc. He was there if we needed him, but out of the way if we didn't. Was very quiet and could hardly hear any traffic from the apartment. I would definitely recommend staying with Tyrome.
Jun 27, 2019Great area. Lovely space
Jun 27, 2019Great host! Cool space!
Jun 27, 2019Schönes Apartment mit guter Anbindung an die öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel. Das Apartment ist sauber und bietet alles, was man so benötigt.
Jun 27, 2019Basement dans un quartier du bushwick en pleine expension. Proche des transports. Apportez juste vos boules Quies ! :)
Jun 27, 2019Great stay in the basement apartment. Ty made sure everything was clean and ready to go and stayed in touch with me throughout. Loved the area, ten minute walk to the L train. Wouldn't have stayed anywhere else. Definitely will be back next time I'm in the area.
Jun 27, 2019This is a cool, funky artist's place, and it is located in a busy, lively neighborhood in Bushwick, Brooklyn. You may need to be a bit bohemian to enjoy the vibe and the basement room that you access through an art gallery, but it was perfect for me. Access to Manhattan is easy via the L train, and there is a ton of restaurants and coffee places and shopping in the immediate neighborhood. Ty is friendly and communicates promptly. The WiFi is screaming fast, too... I clocked 40+ mbps. Bathroom is cramped, but there's plenty of hot water in the shower. I would definitely stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019Overall, for the price and location, this is a great stay if you aren't going to be spending much time in the AirBnb. We spent most of our time exploring the city and the host was very accommodating with check-in times and had the place ready early for me, which was much appreciated! Pros: -Great location close to the metro -Fun art installation upstairs -Mini fridge -Fantastic host; quick response time and helpful with check-in/advice -Fairly quiet neighborhood, which was nice! :) Cons: -Shared laundry at top of the steps was very loud when in use -Loud vent in the room that woke me up a few times -No extra blankets... thin/old bedding that didn't keep me very warm -Kind of dingy/cold feel with concrete floors
Jun 27, 2019Decent spot.
Jun 27, 2019Don't necessarily rely on the pictures!
Jun 27, 2019Ty’s place was amazing!! The art is it’s own plus, but the space feels even more cozy with the added touches! Ty was super nice and helpful. Would definitely suggest anyone wanting an authentic Brooklyn experience to stay here!
Jun 27, 2019Tyrome is a great host. There’s a ton of local art in the area, which is super rad. I’d definitely stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019Cet appartement est parfait pour avoir un endroit très bon marché où rester à Bushwick dans un sous-sol de maison.
Jun 27, 2019This is a great place to stay if you need something small and funcional for a stay in NYC/Brooklyn/Bushwick. I stayed here for ~5 days with my husband and it served to be a perfect temporary home. It has a private entrance, places to hang clothes, hot water, mini fridge, basic kitchen utensils and amenities, and towels. Cons: In the winter.. it’s rather cold in there. No heater. The sink in the bathroom is surprisingly small but there is another larger sink in the kitchenette. The place is small (which we liked) but my husband (6’1”) kept hitting his head on the vents lol but other than that we loved the space. We didn’t spend much time in the space itself though. The area is a safe and interesting place to walk around and explore. It’s near a few subway stations, grocery stores, bars, cafes, and a park. We absolutely loved this location and would use this Airbnb again with no hesitation! ~40 min from LaGuardia by taxi and Uber and about 25-30 USD
Jun 27, 2019Bei der Kellerwohnung war alles genauso wie beschrieben. Check-In und Check-Out verliefen ohne Probleme. In der Nähe gibt es viele Bars, Delis und Restaurants, die zu Fuß zu erreichen sind. Außerdem gibt es zwei alternative Wege, um mit der Subway schnell Manhattan zu erreichen. Wir sind sehr zufrieden! Thanks Tyrome
Jun 27, 2019Todo fue excelente, muy sencillo y práctico. El lugar es tal cual como se muestra en las fotos.
Jun 27, 2019This spot is perfect in regards to distance from the subway and conveniently next to a park and grocery store. It was perfect for the weekend with my friends in NYC!!!
Jun 27, 2019Good location right next to the L train and JMZ, good for someone in town and on the go.
Jun 27, 2019A wonderful place to stay while we explored the city. Easy to get to, close to the subway, amazing coffee nearby and a great host! We hope to stay here again soon.
Jun 27, 2019L'emplacement est idéal dans Brooklyn, proche d'endroits animés et de 2 stations de métro. Par contre il faut bien savoir qu'il s'agit d'un appartement en sous-sol très spartiate. Il n'y a pas à proprement parler de table pour les repas, très peu de luminosité et l'ensemble des équipements sont anciens. Si vous chercher un peu de confort, je vous le déconseille par contre si vous cherchez un logement entier à faible prix je vous le conseille.
Jun 27, 2019Tyrome's place is super cute, in a wonderfully vibrant area and very well located in terms of public transit. Couldn't recommend more highly!
Jun 27, 2019I definitely recommend staying at Tyrome’s lovely apartment. Based in Bushwick it really gives you a feel of being a real New Yorker travelling into Manhattan. The apartment was clean, tidy and private as well as having a great artistic vibe. Tyrome was extremely responsive whenever we needed anything and also left a very handy guide to local amenities! Definitely worth a stay!
Jun 27, 2019The location is great, great communication through the subway, very private. It is what it said it. It was a good experience
Jun 27, 2019Cool guy, unique spot in Brooklyn!
Jun 27, 2019Matches the description. Communication was easy. 10 min walking from a subway. Decent place to stay for a week.
Jun 27, 2019It was a very nice stay !
Jun 27, 2019Tyrome provides lots of info on the neighborhood in a nice binder. it would be a great place for one or two people looking to explore the awesome neighborhood and the city at large. I didn't spend a ton of time there as it was quite warm inside and did smell a little off but I let Tyrome know and I'm sure they will take care of it as I found him to be a communicative host.
Jun 27, 2019Nous sommes restés 10 jours. L'appartement est très proche d'une station de métro (7 minutes à pied), ce qui est très pratique quand on passe la journée dehors et que l'on souhaite rentrer rapidement le soir. Le quartier est pittoresque avec des petits commerces à proximité. Il est très pratique pour faire ses petites commissions alimentaires. Toutefois, il faut garder à l'esprit que l'appartement est en sous-sol et qu'il dispose d'une luminosité faible. A cela s'ajoute un problème d'humidité qui laisse une odeur persistante lorsqu'on rentre le soir. Le manque d'aération est sans doute un facteur explicatif. Il n'est pas possible de cuisiner : l'appartement dispose seulement d'un frigo et d'un évier. Malgré ces derniers éléments nous avons passé un très bon séjour. La communication avec Tyrome a été très facile tout au long du séjour.
Jun 27, 2019Great location. Easy access to downtown. Also, easy access to ISP airport which I traveled from. Quiet area lots of food places around. I had my littles with me and there was a park literally 1 min away.
Jun 27, 2019This Airbnb is truly a BASEMENT : there is no light, a bad smell, mold, dust everywhere (we had to crush two spiders) and more importantly there is no aeration, so towels won't dry after the shower and quickly the smell gets worse. Equipments in the kitchen are very limited, dirty, the plates are dusty. There were tasks on our sheets, the pillows smelled badly, no extra-sheets. We stayed for two nights and we were very dissatisfied with our stay, we recommend you to RUN AWAY from this Airbnb for minimum comfort, even though the price seems appealing. On a more positive note, the Airbnb is not far from the subway, you can easily reach Manhattan.
Jun 27, 2019Great little place, awesome location to base a trip out of. Subway stations are about a 10 minute walk away. Tyrome is great and very responsive. Place is a little cramped if you are tall, I hit my head a few times at night on the way to the bathroom.
Jun 27, 2019I would definitely come back to stay with Tyrome for future trips! His place was so quaint and a gem in Bushwick. Lovely area, great communication and also so kind!
Jun 27, 2019Good location enjoyed our stay and would recommend.
Jun 27, 2019Great location, easy to check in, unique place, and a lovely host if you bump into him!
Jun 27, 2019good location and clean place. just what we were looking for
Jun 27, 2019The apartment is not far from the M, which makes it super convenient to get around Brooklyn and back into Manhattan. There is a bus stop right outside the apartment, as well. As a result, it can be a little loud at night and you have to keep the windows open for fresh air. Overall, a great place to stay and Tyrome was very accommodating to our early check-in/check-outs.
Jun 27, 2019great spot for my trip. easy in and out. everything i needed for a quick stay!
Jun 27, 2019A decent value for this area
Jun 27, 2019Die Unterkunft ist super zentral in Brooklyn gelegen. Man ist in wenigen Minuten an einer Metro Station um Downtown nach Manhatten zu kommen. In direkter Umgebung gibt es viele Möglichkeiten etwas Essen oder Trinken zu gehen außerdem findet man in der Wohnung eine Mappe mit Infos der Umgebung. Der Zugang zur Wohnung war anfangs etwas befremdlich, da man durch seine Galerie geht, um dann die Treppe runter in eine Kellerwohnung zu gelangen. Die Wohnung ist sauber und hat alles was man braucht. Da wir immer früh bereits die Wohnung verlassen haben und nur abends zum Schlafen zurück kamen hat es auch nicht gestört, dass kaum Tageslicht zu sehen ist. Im Zugang zum Schlafzimmer verläuft ein Rohr, dass für Leute über 1,70m zu Falle wird. Mein Freund hat sich hier mehrmals den Kopf gestoßen - also immer dran denken, Kopf einziehen ;-) Worauf man sich einstellen muss: man hört die Menschen in der Wohnung herumlaufen und wenn irgendwo Wasser läuft. Uns hat es nicht gestört, aber wenn man empfindlich ist, sollte man das bedenken. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist ok. NY ist teuer und somit hat es den typischen Charme - aus jedem Platz wird etwas gemacht und zum Vermieten genutzt. Ich würde die Wohnung jedoch jederzeit wieder buchen. Sie war sauber und sehr gut gelegen - das wichtigste bei einer Städtereise.
Jun 27, 2019Cozy place great for a solo trip or trip for two
Jul 27, 2019This apt is exactly what was needed after spending 12-14 hours per day in the city. Great use of a small space. A fantastic grocery store is nearby as well as coffee shops, bars, art stores, etc. This place is a good value!
Jun 27, 2019Alles wie beschrieben. Tyrome ist sehr nett, antwortet schnell und unkompliziert und hat tolle Tipps, um den Aufenthalt so angenehm wie möglich zu machen! Dankeschön!
Jun 27, 2019Pretty cool place
Jun 27, 2019Such a beautiful little spot! My boyfriend and I loved Tyrome’s home. You enter through a very cute art gallery and then down to a private apartment that feels like your own space. Very friendly and accommodating host. Would definitely stay here again!
Jun 27, 2019Nice place, not the kind of place you will spend hours hanging out or relaxing in but has good basic amenities. Good value for a base in a good location in NY
Jun 27, 2019Thank you both, we had a great place to stay during our time in NYC! Great to lay our heads down after the madness of Manhattan! The pipes were a little loud so we ended up buying some ear plugs, but other than that perfect for our needs! Location is very close to several subway stops and the area is really cool with lots of bars and restaurants in walking distance! Water pressure is fantastic and the suggestions provided are wonderful too!
Jun 27, 2019Great space, very clean. For the value it was perfect. Nice artwork to accent. Close to a lot of bars/restaurants plus multiple subway lines.
Jun 27, 2019Private basement space with good cafes and restaurants around. Very easy to get to L train station to get to Manhattan
Jun 27, 2019Good location with nice restaurants in the area.
Jun 27, 2019Tyrome’s place is very cute and cozy with unique pieces of art lining your entrance into the suite. It is located near the subway line making it an easy ride into manhattan. The neighbourhood is beautiful with gorgeous street art on every block and cute coffee shops to spend your morning in. The creaky floor and loud pipes can create some noise so for light sleepers it may cause problems, we however had no problem sleeping after a long day and loved coming back to our cozy little basement during our stay. Thanks Tyrome for a great vacay!
Jun 27, 2019Tyrone's place is small but perfect for a place to rest and leave your bags, especially if you will just be exploring the city all day. Check-in was super easy, and we had everything we needed.
Jun 27, 2019Great location. Easy access. Tyrome is quick to respond. Can’t be beat for the price
Jun 27, 2019Was a good overall and worth the price and good location. The door to the studio is iron so be careful of your fingers!!! Great if you just need a place to keep your stuff. Was very accommodating with checking in/out.
Jun 27, 2019Location is great, only issue I had is when I went it was cold and had an outdated heater that took a while to work. Otherwise, this place is great to crash the night.
