Beaujolais

What could be more New York than an ultra-cool loft apartment? The antique decor, bare brick walls and open floor plan will cater well to free spirits and old souls alike. In terms of entertainment, there's a movie theatre-style projector screen measuring 100 inches, as well as a vintage Akai stereo. Out of the huge windows that take up one side of the space, you can see the original headquarters for the Williamsburg Savings Bank and if you head down to street level, you'll find your host's jazz lounge, where guests enjoy hefty discounts should you want a nightcap to the sound of some toe-tapping jams. If that doesn't tickle your fancy, you can be in Greenwich Village or SoHo in under half an hour on the subway. For those who want to take the scenic route, it only takes forty minutes to cross Williamsburg Bridge and reach the other side of the East River.


Home truths:
*There are twenty-one steps just to reach the front door and no lift to reach the apartment, so it might not be suitable for guests with reduced mobility
*There's free on-street parking available
*The host is open to the possibility of photoshoots or filming
