Jun 27, 2019Shirley was a wonderful host and made me feel right at home! Her home is right next to public transportation and very accessible to Manhattan. I would definitely return!
Jun 27, 2019Shirley is delightful, very responsive , and easy to communicate with. The place has been renovated with care and is very clean. The kitchen is GREAT! The bedrooms were nice and comfortable , but if you have a problem sleeping on a foam mattress, it is good to know that only one bedroom does not have a foam mattress. The shower was wonderful. convenient, safe neighbor hood, parking in driveway. Highly recommend!
Jun 27, 2019Shirley’s place was perfect. Check in & check out process was smooth, the location is great with everything within walking distance (close to a bunch of shops and food selections), the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped with cutlery, pots and pans, clean linen and soap were also provided, lastly the space was great and comfortably fit 5 people. Shirley was nice enough to extend our check out time since we had a very late flight. Our previous trip we stayed in a hotel closer to the city, however, we preferred Shirley’s apt much better. I recommend staying at Shirley’s apt no doubt.
Jun 27, 2019This was an amazing house in a great neighbourhood. We had easy access to the subway system and lots to keeps us busy in Brooklyn. Our only complaint is that we didn't have enough time. I highly reccomend this spot.
Jun 27, 2019Great host, lovely spot.
Jun 27, 2019Shirley's place was clean, warm, and inviting, Beds were comfy, the towels were big and soft, the sheets smelled great, and the huge shower head was awesome. Being able to pull our car into the driveway without any worries about parking was a great plus. Shirley clearly cares about the quality of her her guest's stay and is so honest in how she describes the home. Sure there is the possibility of some street noise in the front bedroom but we were there on a Saturday night and did not find it a problem at all. She was a total pleasure to work with and we would return for sure.
Jun 27, 2019Great house to rent for a family with a car: it is cosy and big enough to 5 Pers. Furthermore, beds are great and communication with Shirley was great. I recommend it!
Jun 27, 2019Spacious Spotless clean Close to everything Quick response Comfy home feel Would definitely not pass up on this gem
Jun 27, 2019Super maison, nous avons été surpris par la grandeur des pièces. La propreté est impeccable et il y a tout ce qu'il faut. Nous avons une semaine chez Shirley et nous étions content de retrouver le confort de la maison et des lits après des heures de marches dans New York. Shirley est une hôtesse accueillante, disponible et très arrangente. N'hésitez pas, super rapport qualité prix. Encore merci Shirley! la bonne demi heure pour rejoindre Manhattan n'a pas du tout était un problème, c'était même bien de quitter pour la nuit l'agitation de big apple.
Jun 27, 2019My family and I really enjoyed staying here! The place was very clean and spacious and plenty of room for my family of 5. The beds were comfortable and Shirley was quick to respond if there was anything we needed!
Jun 27, 2019Shirley is a really nice women that helped us with everything we needed. The house was very clean and spacious. The subway is literally a 10 mins and the house is all around grocery stores. The are is nice and quiet at night. We've been really confortable during our days here in Brooklyn.
Jun 27, 2019Excellent experience.
Jun 27, 2019Beautiful place and excellent location. Close to subway and bus lines. Would definitely stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019My family and I had an outstanding time staying here with it being our first time in NY. Everything was just as pictured if not even better. Our stay was perfect and without a doubt look forward to booking with Shirley again. Definitely recommend it.
Jun 27, 2019Shirley was a great host to also go with a great house everything was great and spacious and most importantly the house was clean. I will definitely be back again PS the shower head was great lol
Jun 27, 2019The house is exactly as pictured, absolutely beautiful! Everything is brand spanking new. We were a little worried as the description said there was no AC and we were going on quite possibly the hottest weekend of the summer. However, we were surprised to find 2 brand new ACs in both of the larger bedrooms which we were extremely grateful for! Shirley was also kind enough to supply us with 2 small cases of water. The house was above our expectations and I would highly recommend staying with Shirley!
Jun 27, 2019Place was very clean, she was very helpful our whole time during the day. Made it a great place to stay, would go again!
Jun 27, 2019This house was amazing , just as the pictures ! 1. The kitchen , rooms and bathroom were super clean. 2. Kitchen : has all the appliances and the oven , refrigerator and microwave are brand new. 3. Bedrooms : just as the pictures, beds are very comfortable, 2 of the have AC that works perfectly. All 3 of the bedrooms have closets. 4. Transportation : the subway is really near. the trip to manhattan is about 40 minutes, but since it’s the last station on the line, we would alway be sitted for the entire trip 5. Host: Shirley was amazing, always responded rapidly , was very nice , and helped us with the check in and check out times.
Jun 27, 2019Everything was as described and Shirley communicated very well. Our group had a great time.
Jun 27, 2019very kind and helpfull host. very good house in a perfect location to see this great city
Jun 27, 2019A lovely house in a lively neighbourhood. Shops, restaurants and subway is very close. The host is a great woman who does the best for her guest (when we were locked out she rescued us even when it was 11 pm!)
Jun 27, 2019A very nice old house recently renovated with all modern fixtures and appliances. Everything is provided, the property is clearly dedicated to being an Air BnB: fully equipped kitchen, comfy beds, multiple bathrooms, keypad entry. My wife and I stayed with her parents and brother while checking out the city, it was a good size for our party of 5. A short walk to Flatbush ave subway station, from there about an hour to midtown. Bodegas and shops within 3 minutes walk. If you are a light sleeper, be warned that the house in a block away from the police station, lots of sirens day and night. It didn’t bother us much but you should know.
Jun 27, 2019Shirley was great to work with. Her house is very stylish and comfortable, and she provided with us New York newbies with some much needed advice on where to go and what to do.
Jun 27, 2019shirley's place was very clean and organized. very spacious for 5 people. location is a bit far from Manhattan, about an hour by public transportation. but train station is within walking distance, so it wasn't bad. overall, I would recommend this place.
Jun 27, 2019Really nice place! Would definitely stay again!
Jun 27, 2019Great place to stay in NYC outside of Manhattan but still close enough to travel to every day. The subway is about 10 min away, as well as various shops. Very nice house to relax in after a long sightseeing day
Jun 27, 2019This property is a cut above the rest - centrally located, good transport links, value for money and excellent host.
Jun 27, 2019Shirley is a very kind New York lady. She was extremely reponsive when we had a question. her house is ideal, up to 5 persons (when there are two couples). very new, complete renovated and very well equiped to cook your own meal etc. it's a 6 minutes walk to the nearest Subway station. the subway took more time then expected to reach the heart of the city (about 45 minutes). that was the only drawback. ideal for those who appreciate a normal house after the rush of Manhattan...
Jun 27, 2019Great stay!
Jun 27, 2019Awesome place to stay. Close to amenities. Immaculate place to stay with a lot of space and room. Good extra touches such as scented sticks, extra bedding, towels and coffee Will be back!
Jun 27, 2019This place was in a great location.
Jun 27, 2019Fui sola con tres niñas pequeñas y después de un viaje largo solo deseaba una entrada rápida, y así fue. La llegada independiente y muy fácil. La casa estaba impecable, con todo lo que puedas necesitar de aseo. Las habitaciones amplias y las camas y almohadas muy cómodas. Es cierto que no está cerca de Manhattan, pero también es cierto que la estación de metro está justo al lado y en 40 minutos estas en el centro de la ciudad. El alojamiento está en un barrio donde hay montones de tiendas y también restaurantes pero al mismo tiempo es muy tranquilo. Shirley es la anfitriona perfecta: discreta, amable, y disponible en cualquier momento. Su respuesta ha sido inmediata. Tuvimos una incidencia con la calefacción y en menos de 15 minutos lo había solucionado. Nos ha dado información acerca de la zona, y el penúltimo día tuvo la amabilidad de acercarnos a la ciudad y de camino nos hizo un Tour y contestó a todas nuestras curiosidades acerca de NY. 100% recomendable!!
Jun 27, 2019Shirley's apartment is spacious and clean, with great amenities, a full kitchen and grocery stores and a Target within walking distance. Which is super convenient! The neighborhood can be a little noisy, and it was new to us but we were able to get around walking, by train or Lyft/Uber. Shirley is a fantastic host who welcomed us and even offered to change our linens partway through our stay!
Jun 27, 2019Shirley’s place was the perfect spot after a long day touring around in Manhattan. We had lots of space and each of us had our own rooms. It was nice to be able to make breakfast in the morning and relax in the evenings. We were often out in Manhattan for most of the days, so we were never able to meet Shirley in person, but she was very quick with messages and everything was effortless when we were there. Thanks Shirley for being a great host and for making sure we had everything that we needed!:)
Jun 27, 2019Huge space. One of the beds is a little twin and the room it's in is very small too. Clean.
