  Mike and Christina was such great hosts! The house was very spacious and pretty! and JULIO (the cat) is just so ADORABLE! He makes our trip more interesting, and he makes us laugh a lot! It was a great stay! Only 5 mins walk to the subway (all the lines to Manhattan)!

  Mike and Christina were fantastic hosts and I very much enjoyed staying in their wonderful apartment. The bedroom is private and cozy, and Mike and Christina did everything possible to make me feel at home, from fantastic breakfast coffees to tips for exploring the neighbourhood. Their cat Julio, meanwhile, simply graced us with his larger-than-life presence.

  A charming room, gorgeous apartment, warm and friendly hosts, and an adorable cat. Such a great experience! I highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a wonderful place that's convenient to the city.

  Mike's apartment was perfect. We had our own bedroom (very quiet at night). The cat, Julio, is hilarious. The place is within walking distance of the trendy areas of Prospect Park, Park Slope, Fort Greene and Cobble Hill. Right near the subways lines for an easy commute to Manhattan. Mike and Christina were very helpful with suggestions and directions. Great NYC deal!

  Mike and Christina's apartment was just as nice as it looks in the photos and located near to several subway stops with easy access to Manhattan. We enjoyed exploring the surrounding area in Brooklyn too - there are some great cafes and markets. Mike was an excellent host and had plenty of tips, and Julio was a very friendly house cat. Thanks for hosting us!

  We had a great time staying with Mike and Christina in their loft! The place is very comfortable -- a nice private room with a comfortable, firm bed. Great shower, lovely kitchen, very cozy, super high ceiling, lots of light, doorman building with laundry, gym and roof deck (none of which we used because we were too busy). The location is ideal -- an easy walk to most subway lines that you'd need to get around the city, whether staying in Brooklyn or heading over to Manhattan. Mike and... More »

  This was our second time staying with Mike and Christina because they are terrific, terrific hosts. We can't sing their praises enough! In addition to being awesome, welcoming, and interesting people- they have a beautiful, comfortable, and extremely well located apartment (and this is coming from a native New Yorker). Thanks again Mike and Christina!

  Mike and Christina have warmly welcomed us in their amazing loft. They were always helpful and kind. The photographs of the loft are undershowing the real beauty of their apartment which is very pleasant to live in. Nice room with correct privacy and very functional kitchen. The area is perfect to visit Brooklyn and it is easy to reach from Manhattan. Definitely, you'll enjoy your stay !

  Mike and Christina are wonderful hosts and make you feel welcome from the moment you make arrangements with them. They respond to your questions immediately and, once there, provide you with maps and any information you might need. Throughout the stay, they are gracious and treat you like friends. We plan on staying there again.

  Our two night stay was very comfortable. During our visit, our hosts were home only one night and we enjoyed taking care of Julio, the cat, during their absence. What made this stay unusual was the lack of birds singing and trains tooting - our standard noises here in our village. It was very quiet!

  Chloe

  Mike and Christina were extremely friendly and made us feel very welcome in their lovely flat. We were given excellent advice about the bars and restaurants in Brooklyn which we found to be invaluable. We were looking for the less touristy places in New York with more local character and that's exactly what we got in Brooklyn. The flat was spacious and comfortable, and was only a 5 minute walk from a major subway station with routes all over New York. Julio was also the perfect housemate and... More »

  Mike & Christina are excellent hosts, responsible, friendly, easy to talk to. The beautiful loft is very convenient to 2 metro stations. Parking on the street is easier than I had anticipated. The gym is well equipped. Another bonus is being greeted by the doorman. I hope their room is available for my next visit.

  We had a great time at Mike and Christinas. They are very sweet and helpful and their place is super comfortable and has everything that you need- comfy bed, big tv, big bath tub, great shower, nice big kitchen, laundry, gym etc.. and the biggest, fluffiest, cutest cat ever. A little bit out of the way, but very easy to get to most places. So if you don't mind not being in the center of things, highly recommended!

  Mike and Christina (and Julio the cat) were so great! They are friendly, easy to talk to, and offered great advice on places to go and directions. Anyone who stays with them will feel right at home. Thanks for everything! - Sameera and Reed

  Mike and Christina were perfect hosts from the moment we arrived until the moment we left. The room was comfortable and airy, the shower was top class and there was always a pot of coffee on the go! The living area was very homely too... Mike even set up our very own guest account on the computer so we could find our way around before we even had to leave the appartment. We would highly recommend M & C to anyone we know. Thanks again guys! Stevo & Sav

Julio, the cat, is charming and friendly, he was the first one to welcome us as we stepped into the loft .... the place is only 15 to 20 min to downtown Manhatan easy to access by metro and in a safe neighborhood close to police precinct and fire dpt. The hosts Mike and Christina are sooooooo nice and welcoming and... More »

  Mike and Christina were the nicest, most welcoming hosts- they made us feel like old friends stopping over. On top of that, the accommodations were so comfortable and clean. The neighborhood, Prospect Heights, was also terrific-- the Brooklyn Academy of Music is right nearby, tons of restaurants and shopping, Prospect Park, and fun bars. There are plenty of nearby subway lines, so getting into Manhattan is really easy. Mike and Christina's cat, Julio, welcomed us every time we walked in and... More »

  Mike, his place, and his wonderful cat made our place in NYC an amazing experience! First, his place is very clean, large, warm (we went in the winter) and a 5 minute walk from a large Subway station that connects to multiple lines. 20 minute ride to be in the center of Manhattan and it's in a very safe and quiet area with a lot of families. Mike himself is a great guy. Extremely nice, and he made us feel right at home. He's also great to talk too, which makes me kind of sad we didn't get too... More »
