Jun 27, 2019Liza was a super accommodating host who provided a great stay! The space was tidy and well kept and we felt very comfortable. Communication was excellent and Liza was superb in coordinating with us. We hope to come back and stay with her again!
Jun 27, 2019Liza's home is the best place to stay in NY! Silent neighborhood, great subway connection with Manhattan, best bed we've ever sleep!, large space and as much privacy as you want to have. Many advices, just like VERY BEST DONUTS at Peter Pan's. Liza, thank you! :)
Jun 27, 2019Great comfy bed.
Jul 27, 2019I had a really smooth stay at Liza's place. The room is very comfy, and there is a kitchenette space that I didn't expect which I thought was nifty. She is a very friendly host and I encountered no problems during my stay!
Jun 27, 2019Very cozy!
Jun 27, 2019I enjoyed my stay at Liza's place. Would recommend to my friends and family to Airbnb here while in Brooklyn. Thanks so much Liza!
Jun 27, 2019The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place was awesome, super neat and comfy.
Jun 27, 2019Lizard place was perfect. When I walked in the first time she wasn't there and it took me a few minutes to figure out that my space was downstairs. Once I figured that out, everything went smoothly. The location is close to the bus stop and the space has a kick backyard. Would stay there again.
Jun 27, 2019The stay at Liza's place was great, the accommodation is realy cosy, clean and the bed is so comfortable :-) Liza gave us a lot of tips where to go or eat. I can highly recommend her. Thanks Liza, it was our pleasure to stay with you. :-)
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place is clean and quiet. Good value for a place to crash close to the city.
Jun 27, 2019Liza was very friendly, helpful, and responsive. The place was comfortable and close to everything Greenpoint and Williamsburg have to offer.
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place made for a comfortable and relaxing stay. It is a clean basement studio that has access to a nice backyard garden. The studio has a private bathroom (with only a toilet), but the shower is located in the main apartment upstairs. The apartment is in a good location, within walking distance of bars and restaurants. Overall, what I appreciated most--aside from the friendly kitty-cat-- was the value and location of this place.
Jun 27, 2019Easily the best Airbnb we've stayed at. Firstly, the space is amazing. You're in the basement of an awesome Brooklyn home, which is perfect in summer because it stays nice and cool. The bed was super comfy, everything was clean and the kitchenette made life so easy! Secondly, you're a five minute walk from downtown Greenpoint, a ten minute walk from Williamsburg and a half an hour Subway trip into Manhattan. Finally, the hosts were so gracious and welcoming. I would 110% recommend this to friends and would stay back here in a heartbeat. Thank you!
Jun 27, 2019The place was great! Very accurate, has a TV with Netflix and other apps, and there was even a cat from upstairs that was super cuddly and loved staying with us! The only negatives were that the shower was shared upstairs and there is only a half bathroom that is private, and the bed is a little small for two people. We also had a little bit of trouble getting in and we couldn't figure out which room it was right away. (It's straight ahead once you walk in!) Other than that, it was great! Would stay here again :)
Jun 27, 2019Super nice place. Very friendly cat. Would recommend!
Jun 27, 2019Exactly what I was looking for. Cute and comfortable and perfect for my stay. Would definitely recommend to one person looking to stay in Brooklyn on a budget
Jun 27, 2019Nice place. Private
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place was lovely, very tidy, and they were very inviting hosts. The cat was super chill as well and the backyard ended up being a perfect place to relax. very highly recomended!
Jun 27, 2019Place was clean and cozy. I honestly thought it was better than the pictures. Liza also responded very quickly to any questions I asked!
Jun 27, 2019Great place. Great location. Friendly host.
Jun 27, 2019Nice place and very helpful people.
Jun 27, 2019Nice place, very comfortable and clean.
Jun 27, 2019The quality of the space was instantly comfortable - a relief after a long trip! It had the feeling of familiarity that was highly welcomed. The great fortune of meeting the cat was a highlight of the whole trip! I appreciated how easy it was to check in, and the calm and quiet stay. It was a real treat, and I highly recommend this space!
Jun 27, 2019Liza and her cat are wonderful hosts. Fun location in Greenpoint with street parking and cool bars and restaurants nearby. Bedroom is very quiet.
Jun 27, 2019A really great apartment, genuinely better than the pictures. It has a garden, cooking facilities, Netflix and is a short walk from an excellently connected subway station. There's also a cat that is so lovely and friendly and made it feel especially homely!
Jun 27, 2019Liza is kind, respectful, and an absolutely fantastic host. The place is very comfortable and feels like home. I highly recommend.
Jun 27, 2019I definitely appreciate how clean she keeps the whole apartment. Lovely backyard and a super friendly cat! Easy 15 minute walk to the subway and some great restaurants. Super host!
Jun 27, 2019It was a pleasant stay. Great room with good location. Less than 12 min walk from 2 metro stations. All way to Manhattan about 25 min. Everything was awesome. For cheap prise you get a very big and quiet room with garden view and your own kitchen, toilet and washbasin (shower shared in main room). Host very polite and frendly. She help us with luggage storage, and meet with beautiful cat William ). Thank you Liza!
Jun 27, 2019Liza was very nice and hospitable, just what me and my father needed :) her plAce is about a 10-15 minute walk to the L train. There is a kitchenette with a microwave, a hot plate, refrigerator and coffee maker. The shower is shared upstairs with Liza but there is a private bathroom downstairs as well as a cute entrance to the backyard. Great for chilling and drinking coffee. A added bonus was her friendly cat :)
Jun 27, 2019Très bel endroit. Très cosy. Merci Liza pour l accueil et la confiance!
Jun 27, 2019Nice place. A bit further from central Williamsburg than I would have liked but good otherwise. Note that there is no AC which was fine for a warm summer day but might be a bit hot in the peak of summer.
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place is essentially a place to sleep and shower, which is all I needed. The room was still cozy and exceptionally clean, and has access to a beautiful backyard! The Greenpoint area has lots to see and do and you're in a great location to get to it. I like to walk so I forewent a lot of the public transportation options, but they were plentiful and nearby. Great place!
Jun 27, 2019Loved it! Great setup, perfect for a private airbnb that's not overpriced. The location is great as is the space itself. Sweet, cuddly kitty who has good manners! Liza is also very sweet. It's a great spot in the middle of wherever you need to go in town. The graham L is about a 10min walk, great coffee shop, bar nearby. The bed is prime. I havent slept that well in awhile. I'd stay here again if she'd have me. Thank you!
Jun 27, 2019Liza was very friendly and helpful! And her cat was a welcome part of the experience. My flight was delayed making my check-in super late, but she was very kind about it. Would definitely recommend!
Jun 27, 2019The most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. The couch wasn't bad either (shared a room with my sister, so this was important) Full kitchen, clean bathroom, beautiful garden space with your own entrance. Provides towels, well decorated space with bright lighting, plenty of mirrors, literature, hair dryer, TV and a Roku box. Easy to get in and out. Would stay again!
Jun 27, 2019Awesome apartment and close to all kinds of great bars and restaurants and a short walk to the subway. The apartment was clean and comfortable with a nice bed. The garden is beautiful and was amazing to enjoy on a hot summer day. Liza was a great host and very easy to communicate with. Very friendly and a pleasure to meet. She also has a great cat that was very friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay and highly recommend staying at Liza's place!
Jun 27, 2019Very handy location and Liza is a great host.
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place was clean and easy to access. It was located in an area that was easy to get around. I kept to myself while I stayed with her and don't think we came into contact, which I prefer as I was pretty busy during my time in NYC. I'd stay there again.
Jun 27, 2019Great spot to stay in Brooklyn near good bars and restaurants.
Jun 27, 2019Great spot for a weekend in BK!
Jun 27, 2019Liza is a great host. She was clear about everything and has a lovely home.
Jun 27, 2019Liza place was great! The bed would super comfortable, even though it was hot outside there were enough fans to keep the place at a comfortable temperature.
Jun 27, 2019Comfortable accommodation. Price commensurate with location. Make sure you are aware, as we were, of travel times and distance to New York. Buy a metro card.
Jun 27, 2019Great place. So clean and Liza is an incredibly interesting person to meet. She made my stay pleasant! The only complaint is how far the place is from the L line, but once you get to it, it's a quick 10 minutes to Manhattan.
Jun 27, 2019Endroit très calme et confortable. À 15 minutes à pieds du métro L. Liza est facilement joignable et disponible. Appartement agreable avec acces sur une petite cour. Aucun problème avec le chat, M. William, malgré les allergies de mon copain, mais si vous le souhaitez il vous tiendra volontie compagnie (il est adorable).
Jun 27, 2019Liza was a great host! Her place was just what my dad and I needed for a week in NYC. It was clean and well appointed. Her description was accurate. We enjoyed our week!
Jun 27, 2019Liza is a great host. Helpful, friendly, and let us check in hours early as our flight arrived early. We were so grateful for that!! The place looks better than the pictures too, and was very peaceful so we got some really great sleep. The location is the only thing I would change in an ideal world as you have to walk a couple of blocks past quite an industrial looking area to get back from the subway. Having said that we were perfectly safe and learnt that an uber back from Manhattan is only about $25, so that was great.
Jun 27, 2019Liza's apartment was great. A little far from the train station but a nice quiet neighborhood. Liza was friendly and helpful when we needed her. We only wished for some more windows in the heat.
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place was awesome, So much so that i felt right at home. The decor was very laid back and well kept. I enjoyed the unique art on the walls and the small novelties placed on the furniture's. Having access to a video streaming device, a and kitchenette made the stay even more pleasant. Stores and supermarkets are conveniently located within walking distance from the house so you can conveniently grab anything you need in a jiffy. Liza was very laid-back, courteous, respectful of my privacy and also helpful with directions, anything that I needed and recommendations of stores that I wanted to go to. The L train station is a 10 min walk and you'll arrive in Manhattan very quickly. Overall it was a great stay.
Jun 27, 2019Great space! Clean and safe area. The garden is the best for lounging with coffee and drink before going out! Not right in the downtown area but not far
Jun 27, 2019Thank you.
Jun 27, 2019Liza was kind and the bed was soft. The unit felt like it was its own space and I did come and go as I pleased. Never had to wait for the shower and everything was clean. My main issue was that it took about 20 minutes to walk to the L, longer than expected, and the neighborhood was industrial. But for the price, you get a lovely room with a cute little stairway to a backyard garden. If you don't mind taking some time to commute most places (and the L gets crowded!!), it's nice.
Jun 27, 2019Lisa is a very nice host,we liked staying here very much. The location is just convenient, close to the metro connect directly with downtown. Room is big and clean. And most of all,we love the cat so much! THANK YOU FOR everthing!
Jun 27, 2019Superverblijf.
Jun 27, 2019Fantastic and super clean space, friendly and accommodating host, super friendly cat.
Jun 27, 2019Liza was very friendly and helpful. Her place was very comfortable.
Jun 27, 2019Logement très fonctionnel et au calme dans cette ville si bruyante. Liza est charmante et discrète, ce qui rend la cohabitation agréable. Logement proche de restaurants et bars sur Graham avenue (quartier Williamsburg). 2 stations de métro à une quinzaine de minutes à pieds.
Jun 27, 2019Liza’s place was great. Perfect location for everything we wanted to do & the space was clean & comfortable. If you’re a cat person, definitely stay here so you can meet Mister William! This will definitely be my first choice for stay anytime I come to Brooklyn in the future.
Jun 27, 2019Great little spot. Same as other comments. Comfy bed. Friendliest cat ever. Close enough to where I wanted to go.
Jun 27, 2019L appartement est vraiment bien, grand et propre. Il y a un chat vraiment sociable. Le quartier est une zone industrielle pas des plus jolies. De plus le métro est a 15mins a pied. Pour un séjour court c est un bon rapport qualité prix.
Jun 27, 2019Stayed here briefly November 2017. A great place – spacious (for New York), clean, close to public transport, and with access to a nice garden!
Jun 27, 2019Liza’s place was clean & comfy! The only issue I had was the 20 minute walk to the train (which wouldn’t be as bad if it wasn’t freezing out). Other wise, I had a great stay!
Jun 27, 2019Clean and spacious room in a quiet area. Short walk to subway for Manhattan.
Jun 27, 2019Liza was a great host. Very kind and good with communication. Clear directions and accurate description. Recommended.
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place is about 15-20 min walk from the nearest subway stations, but for the extra walk you are rewarded with a large serene private space with a galley kitchen and a half bathroom. Also, Liza's beautiful harp music and Mister William (the resident cat) also serve to brighten the experience. I enjoyed my weekend at Liza's place, and recommend it to others.
Jun 27, 2019Was very clean. Liza waa very nice and gave us our space. The bed was very comfortable and the stay was enjoyable.
Jun 27, 2019Cute space with an adorable cat. The immediate neighborhood was a little unnerving, but this is coming from someone not used to cities so take that with a grain of salt. This space served our purposes perfectly, and Liza is a communicative host. Thanks again!
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place was super cute and cozy..close to so much cool stuff in Brooklyn would definitely stay again!!
Jun 27, 2019This was a very nice place.
Jun 27, 2019Stylish, welcoming environment in a great location. Excellent value
Jun 27, 2019Cutest cat ever! The space was great for a couple or two friends to stay. The bed was comfortable and the mini apartment was clean. The apartment/room is located in the basement area so lots of privacy but don’t worry you won’t feel like you are in a basement because Liza adds a personal touch. Kitchen area ( large fridge, sink, pans etc.) is good for stove top cooking only. You can actually hear Liza playing one of her several harps which is very sweet sound to hear.
Jun 27, 2019Spacious apartment with a comfy bed. Free parking outside the apartment was convinent! Liza gave us great suggestions for restaurants to check out and the check-in/check-out process was flexible and easy. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to visit in Brooklyn!
Jun 27, 2019This is a great quiet place out in Greenpoint. Great price and close to everything in that area. I’d definitley stay here again
Jun 27, 2019Nice quiet space. Mr. William (house cat) is the absolute cutest thing ever! Host was out of the country so communication wasn’t the swiftest but overall I had a very good stay!
Jun 27, 2019Great space! Very cozy and doesn’t feel like a basement spot. The bed was comfortable. Very responsive host and a great value for the location.
Jun 27, 2019The cat is amazing but if you’re allergic they’ll keep him upstairs, location convenient, response time great and the bed is comfortable!
Jun 27, 2019This was my second time staying at Liza’s place. I loved it, the bed was SUPER comfortable, the space itself was very nice and well put together, and overall it was clean and an enjoyable stay. I would recommend Liza’s airbnb to people traveling to NYC.
Jun 27, 2019Had a great stay. Excellent communication. All was as described, had everything I needed and close to some great neighbourhoods. Most friendly cat I’ve ever met in my life too. All good.
Jun 27, 2019Great, quiet place! Also, fantastic cat. Will be staying here again!
Jun 27, 2019Comfy bed!
Jun 27, 2019Liza was great! Check in was super easy and Liza was wonderful and so friendly. And Mr. Williams the house cat was so friendly and cuddly!!! I would definitely stay at Liza’s again. The bed was comfortable and the space was really pretty! I had a great stay :)
Jun 27, 2019Liza’s place was great. Super clean and walking distance to cool places in Williamsburg. However the best part was getting to cuddle with Mister William.
Jun 27, 2019The location is perfect, Liza's tips on local restaurants were delicious, definitely a great choice.
Jun 27, 2019As advertised- clean and comfortable! Additionally, Liza provided clear, prompt communication and was a pleasant hostess.
Jun 27, 2019Thanks Liza for such a warm welcome! I really liked the place: it’s stylish and clean and the bed is sooo convenient! I truly recommend the house:)
Jun 27, 2019Liza was great, and the place was even better! The basement aparrment is decorated so nicely it doesn't even feel like you're in the basement. The door leading to the small garden outback brought in great natural light, and the bed was soft and cozy. Mr. Williams, the resident kitty, came right down and greeted us and made us feel at home as soon as we arrived. We will definitely stay here again next time we come to Brooklyn.
Jun 27, 2019L'alloggio di Liza è gradevolissimo, funzionale ma anche accogliente e molto confortevole. Pur essendo, come molti appartamenti a New York, un seminterrato, ha una porta a vetri che dà sulla scaletta esterna del giardino ed è quindi luminoso. Cucina completa, letto comodissimo, l'unico spazio condiviso è la doccia al piano superiore ma privacy e libertà di movimento sono garantiti. Il wi-fi funziona perfettamente e il riscaldamento è regolabile a piacere. Consiglio di darsi il tempo di scoprire il quartiere, industriale ma tranquillo e punteggiato di piccoli esercizi a pochi metri di distanza. Un prezioso ristorante vietnamita, un McDonalds, un punto vendita Staples (dove si possono andare a stampare self-service le carte d'imbarco o qualsiasi cosa) sono veramente a cinque passi. A poca distanza piccoli supermercati, bar, negozi di qualsiasi tipo. Con quindici/venti minuti di passeggiata si raggiunge la stazione della linea L a Graham Avenue, accanto a un negozio di frutta e verdura fresca sempre aperto. Liza sarà lieta di darvi consigli e, se lo gradite, il fantastico gatto Mr. William vi terrà compagnia come se fosse vostro, senza lasciarvi mai soli. Tornerò senz'altro!
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place was awesome and just as pictured and described! She was super nice and very responsive. Mr. Williams the cat was an added delight since he is so well behaved, but could easily be kept away by shutting the door to the space (which I felt no need for). No loud noises from surrounding areas could be heard so sleeping in peace was easy. The L train is a short walk away (10-15 minutes depending on walking speed). Would completely recommend for anyone that wants to be conveniently close to Manhattan but not want to be on the island.
Jun 27, 2019The space was perfect! Very close to bars and concert venues
Jun 27, 2019Loved everything about this place. Very cool set-up. Clean and fresh. Location is perfect for Greenpoint. Our stay was delightful.
Jun 27, 2019Quiet and private spot. The hostess was very nice and discreet. Very confortable bed, lovely backyard. Good location with easy walk to the subway.
Jun 27, 2019This place was great! Very accurate to the photos, we had our own private space in the basement and only had to access the upstairs to use the shower. Beautiful backyard oasis and Mr. William the cat would come down to visit us and snuggle with us in the mornings. The bed is very comfortable, and very high off the ground so you have to be careful climbing up. All in all great experience in Brooklyn.
Jun 27, 2019Convenient, affordable, and clean. Just what I was looking for!
Jun 27, 2019So clean, so comfortable, and the backyard was a great place to take a moment and relax. I’ll definitely look for this spot again should I find myself back in Brooklyn. Exactly as advertised, and an incredible value.
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place was clean and cozy. She was a very kind and personable host.
Jun 27, 2019Comfortable and nice ground floor apartment, nice place to relax if you're in the area.
Jun 27, 2019Loved our stay! The place was very clean and comfortable, as listed!!
Jun 27, 2019Nice place. Exactly as described. Easy to check in and out. Entrence is almost completely private. Great value.
Jun 27, 2019We had a great time at this property. Brooklyn is a great place and it was well positioned for where we wanted to be.
Jun 27, 2019Nice place to stay
Jun 27, 2019This was a great place to stay. There were a ton of great bars and restaurants within walking distance. Lizza was out of town during our stay, but she was super responsive and helpful when we needed to message her. Definitely recommend this place.
Jun 27, 2019Apartment just as described! Adorable interior, cute little back garden and comfy bed. Kitties were a nice touch to the experience :) Felt very cozy and clean. Shower is separate upstairs and entrance is through Liza's apartment. Only downside is that the place is a little of out the way so you have to Uber to Williamsburg or surrounding areas.
Jun 27, 2019Easy self check in process and own private space down stairs. Nice comfortable bed. Is a shared shower upstairs but no problem as I was there on my own as owner was overseas. There is a toilet downstairs for your own use. Had a great stay and about a 12 min walk to subway. 5min walk has you near restaurants and bars as well as food markets. Nice quiet neighborhood.
Jun 27, 2019Very nice stay, 5 Star everything. Would come back
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place was a great value in a very convenient location. Would recommend.
Jun 27, 2019綺麗で可愛らしいお部屋でした｡共用ｽﾍﾟｰｽには猫がいるので､予め知っておいた方がいいです｡
Jun 27, 2019Everything was exactly as expected and written out. Liza was very nice and responded immediately if I had any questions or and updates. Location was perfect for what we were in town for, and the area was perfect size and clean! We had a great stay and I would definitely recommend staying at Liza's, or even staying there myself again in the future!
Jun 27, 2019Very nice and clean And a very nice backyard space
Jun 27, 2019Instructions on how to get there were clear. Keybox worked perfectly. Side, semi private entrance was very nice and smooth. Spotless space. Air cooling was on and waiting for me. Liza is very gracious, open, and kind. Absolutely lovely experience.
Jun 27, 2019This place is a great location, great price and the perfect place to rest after a busy day in the city.
Jun 27, 2019Great home, awesome location and Liza was an amazing host.
Jun 27, 2019Clean place and very nice host ! Great place to stay in Brooklyn !
Jun 27, 2019Location is a 10+ min walk from subway station. Everything else very convenient; more spacious than I thought. Overall very comfortable stay.
Jun 27, 2019A nice little place not too far from the subway. The shower was shared, but still very clean. Liza was very good at giving us our personal space and we felt very welcome staying there.
Jun 27, 2019Great host, place was as described and very comfortable.
Jun 27, 2019Great place to stay! The space is private and well appointed. Loved the friendly “greeter” kitty Mr. Williams. We were in town for a concert at Brooklyn Bowl and it was a short & cheap (under 10 min) Uber ride there. Very good value too. Would stay again and recommend! Thanks Liza :)
Jun 27, 2019Liza’s house is very clean and comfortable. She provides everything you need.
Jun 27, 2019The place is a basement extremely well set. The perfect space for a couple of people. The toilet is private but the shower is shared... I didn’t noticed that when I booked. It’s a little uncomfortable but we adapted with no problem. Liza was amazingly kind and friendly. We enjoyed our stay.
Jun 27, 2019This apartment was a remodeled basement space in an aging building in an industrial neighborhood in Green Point. Described as a private apartment, it only sort of fits that bill. It shares a corridor with the laundry room and is accessed through the host's apartment, and is therefore (to me) only semi-private. Being what it is, i.e. a basement-type space, it was honestly a little clammy, dusty, and smelly, though clearly Liza has made efforts to spruce it up. There aren't a lot of shops or restaurants in the immediate vicinity; there is however lots of good stuff provided one is able to walk a mile or so; same thing with a subway stop. Liza was communicative, clear and friendly, but I will probably decide next time to pay a little more for something more private, and maybe closer to transit/food.
Jun 27, 2019Convenient place close to pleasant areas in WBrooklyn and métro stations to Manhattan
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place was great. Everything was clean and comfortable, as the space is listed. The neighborhood is very convenient and has lots to do. While the L train is a quick 10 minute walk from the Airbnb, it was sadly closed for most of our stay. The G train is about a 20 minute (1 mile) walk. Liza leaves great recommendations for food & drink (Little Dokebi is so good and so affordable, and you must get the mashed potatoes at Conchord Hill), but the neighborhood has much to explore. We loved the shops/gift stores and cafes (go get ice cream at Van Leeuwen's! Oh, and the rainbow bagel is just around the corner from the L!), and it's also convenient to other great amenities like the Brooklyn Museum (just a few bucks in a Lyft). Manhattan is easy enough to get to as well, but I prefer the Brooklyn experience when in New York. The Greenpoint neighborhood is safe and the Airbnb is very secure and cozy. The shared shower was not an issue and the Airbnb itself was spacious. I enjoyed having a couch, easy-to-find outlets, a kitchen area, and a clean bathroom. I would definitely stay here again!
Jun 27, 2019Really Enjoyed my stay at lizas place. Great hospitality and place was as advertised :)
Jun 27, 2019What a fabulous place. Liza is the perfect hostess, offering valuable tips on out of the way places to go and also where to go in the neighbourhood. Steps to the basement might be a problem for some, but I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and can highly recommend.
Jun 27, 2019Great place - pleasant with lots of space. Within easy walking distance of excellent spots in Brooklyn, and only a short subway ride from Manhattan. Great value too. Liza was very welcoming, and check in was extremely smooth. A last minute opportunity meant she had to be away most of the week, but it was a pleasure to hang out with Mr Williams, the resident cat!
Jun 27, 2019Comfortable and clean in a very peaceful area. The cat is great too : )
Jun 27, 2019Liza's place was perfect for a short trip. It was clean and the bed was great. One thing to note is that you do walk through a studio apartment to enter your private space (wasn't expecting that) but I didn't encounter anyone. Liza's cat was adorable and friendly. I would definitely stay again.
Jun 27, 2019My second stay was just as wonderful as the first. Would absolutely recommend Liza's place for a short stay.
Jun 27, 2019Very comfortable place with a relaxed feel to it.
Jun 27, 2019Liza’s place is very stylish and homie. Had everything we needed. Very quite area. Highly recommend. Easy walk to the subway station and also close to the Kingsland venue where we went to a show.
Jun 27, 2019Liza’s space was easy to get into, and communication with her was easy. We were a little disappointed with the cleanliness-we are not super picky, but there were hairs in the bathroom sink, the bedspread had cat hair on it, and the rugs were (Website hidden by Airbnb) could have definitely used a little more attention. Our main problem with the space was the water heater (?) that is located in the closet just steps from the bed. It turned on and off the entire night, making a lot of noise, and the pipes were very noisy as well. We woke up at 2 in the morning because of it, and were unable to get back to sleep so we left the apartment at 4 AM since there was no point in staying in bed. This apartment is a comparatively good value, but we would not recommend it if you are not a very heavy sleeper.
Jun 27, 2019It was clean, easy to find, and Mister William (Liza’s cat) was a nice addition and a lovely greeter. The bed was very comfortable and safe. Worked well for my friend and I to enjoy the night in the city.
Jun 27, 2019Loved it. It was a great stay! Thank you.
Jun 27, 2019We had a great time at Liza' s place. The apartment has a lot of character and has everything you need. It is a little rough around the edges but perfect as a base and its no problem with us. The walk to the subway feels like a long slog at the end of a busy day but the area it self is well connected. Mr Williams the cat was a highlight, he would come and cuddle us in the morning. You don't see much of Liza and the whole place felt very private, which was great by us. There was no orientation of the apartment so we had to find most things ourselves. The bed was comfy and the shower was powerful. We had a fantastic time.
Jun 27, 2019This Airbnb is a great place to stay! It's close enough via the subway to get downtown (10ish minute walk, half hour subway ride to the Times Square area) and there are plenty of places nearby to eat or grab coffee.
Jun 27, 2019Had a great stay at Liza’s place! Would definitely recommend to friends if they were visiting Brooklyn.
