“I stayed at THE most elegant and charming bed and breakfast in Brooklyn—Akwaaba Mansion. The owner is from DC and a Bison–like me!! Akwaaba is my new getaway. I honestly felt like I was at home—and the food, mmm-mmm good!”
Taraji P. Henson (Actress)
I love this place! No really. It’s my home away from home when I’m in the city, but I’m trying to figure out how to get them to sell it to me so I can really make it my home.”
Mos Def
(Hip Hop & Spoken Word artist/Actor)
“Thank you for making my last day as a single woman-and my first night as a married one-so memorable. As a Brooklyn resident, it was great to ‘get away’ without going away.”
Nadine, Brooklyn, New York
“This is our second time here at the Mansion. This place holds special memories for us that will last a lifetime. We enjoyed every minute of every day.”
Nykia and David, Austin, Texas
“We anxiously entered the Mansion, because what we could see from outside the front door was already overwhelming. Then we went from room to room and fell in love with the heart of this house.”
Earl and Jacqueline, Jersey
