A bit of a nomad, I live between NYC and Europe, and wander around alot - so I have a few apartments in NYC and Madrid that I rent out when I'm not using them. I'm always happy to be able to host and meet fellow travelers!

We stayed a week and were very content. Sonja was out of the county but her friend Jennifer was very friendly and helpful. As other reviews have noted the building is a little tired but the apartment is great; warm- we were staying in November!- comfortable and all had all amenities and 2 very comfy beds! Being so close to subway was brilliant and every day we walked in Prospect Park and on a Saturday the nearby Botanical Gardens are free entry and that is a must visit. I would happliy... More »

This was my first AirBnB experience, and all in all it was great. Sonja confirmed my stay immediately, and kept in good contact ahead of my arrival, and made sure she was around to welcome me. We had a good chat (she's really friendly) and she handed me a few sheets with local places to eat and visit etc. The apartment is exactly as shown, clean, comfy, excellent wifi, lots of TV channels, homely kitchen. The building itself inside is a little tired, but the lift takes you almost all the way... More »

Stayed at Sonja's Prospect Park pad back in August and had a great time. The place was spacious and clean. Great place for 4 people. The location was also convenient, close to the subway which was minutes to the beach and manhattan. Great food in the area as well. Sonja was also a wonderful host. Our flight came in at 7 am and Sonja offered to let us keep our luggage at her place until our apartment was ready. We would definitely stay with Sonja again the next time we are in NYC!

Hi We recently spent 5 days at Sonja's apartment in Beekman Place, Brooklyn. As two "seniors" from England we found it very clean and well equipped and very handily located for exploring Brooklyn and Manhattan - 20 mins on the Q line from nearby Prospect Park subway. The block in which the apartment finds itseld is a little tired and in need of renovation but the apartment itself was fine. James, the resident 'manager' was helpful and everything worked smoothly with regard to payment and... More »

Great place to stay. We are a family from Sweden, two adults + two kids seven and three years old. We stayed nine days and loved our vacation. The area is not the nicest in NYC but if you like the real Brooklyn-feeling this is the place. Lots of small stores and restaurants and for the kids the Prospect park just around the corner was fantastic: playgrounds, karusel, zoo and enormous spaces. The apartment is just one room, but it is clean and we mostly just slept and had breakfast and dinner... More »

Hi the apartment was great , Sonja was very helpful when we arrived.It was in a really good situation for the local shops and subway, we also ate some good local food in nearby restaurants. We would definately stay again.

Pretty well just as the photos show - clean and comfortable, plus it's close to the subway, Prospect Park and round the corner from K Dog and Dunebuggy coffee. Sonja was great to deal with - she responded quickly to messages and was very generous sharing her local Brooklyn knowledge.

I had a great time staying in Sonja's apt. Clean, looked exactly as picture, was well stocked w/ linens, cooking utensils etc. I was unfortunate to not be able to meet Sonja due to her work, but her partner Jennifer greeted us, she was extremely nice, explained where the subways were, how parking was and was helpful with any questions we may have had. I would definitely stay again when I come back to NY.
