Jewel was a very niced host. I had everything that I need in my room (universal adaptator, books about brooklyn and new york, city maps). She is also very helpful.

What can I say, what an Amazing Human Being Jewel is (in my opinion), so Funny, Intelligent, Confident, Thoughtful, Helpful, Caring, Trustworthy and Talented, (this girl is going places in her life, respect!!) I would stay with Jewel again just to spend time with her, as for the room, a bed like a cloud with cotton wall pillows with her amazing style stamped all over the beautiful room. My only regret was I didn't spend more time with Jewel!! Next Time we will definitely be shooting some chips girl !!! Brooklyn's Finest right there in Caton Avenue, Thank You so much for Being You!
How do I book?
Contact the host about your stay - tell them a little about yourself, why you are staying and ask any questions you have about their homestay. You will be able to book immediately after sending your message.
When do I pay?
Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 199 $£€ for longer term bookings) and a 25% deposit using a choice of payments: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal. The deposit is collected in advance on behalf of the host to protect against no show or late cancellations (within 7 days of arrival). You then pay your host the balance due on arrival. The 25% deposit payment is made to the host 2 business days after your scheduled arrival date. This deposit payment will only be refunded if you cancel the booking at least 7 full days prior to arrival.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
