This apartment is awesome!

We loved the view and apartment. The location was wonderful for going into NYC. The owners were extremely helpful! Staying here made our trip very memorable. The only potential issue is someone with mobility issues may not be able to use the spiral staircase to the bedrooms.

Unbelievable view, close to all necessities. Great 24 hour bakery 1 block away.

The view of Manhattan is even better than the photos. Very tight spiral staircase makes luggage moving difficult. Overall it is a great place.

Nice location and nice cozy property.

The owners were responsive and accommodating, especially when we got there. They met us at the property to ensure we had a parking space and walked us through the rooms to ensure all was acceptable to us. Everytime I texted them during our stay, we promptly received a response and they addressed any and all items we had. We enjoyed it!

Easy check in, great communication, convenient to the city

Peter and his team were so welcoming. They made sure we had everything we needed and gave us lots of ideas and help on traveling into the city. We were a family flying in from all over the States for a wedding. It was a great space to gather together and eat meals at the big kitchen table.loved the large deck for admiring the City view. Very quiet area.

Amazing View!!!

The property was great. Loved the patio area setup overlooking the City as we BBQ'd. The rooms downstairs also had a view of the City. House was clean, nicely furnished, air conditioned, ceiling fans, parking was tight but worked out fine for us. We had a total of 12 people and not once felt we were crammed up. Solid experience. Would recommend to family and friends for sure.

Family trip

My brother, sister, and I drove up to stay at this home. Though we saw pictures of the view, they didn’t capture how awesome it really is!! The place was more than accommodating for the three of us. It was super close to anything we needed (grocery store, bars, restaurants, brunch spot lol), and a short UBer to NYC. The owners were very quick to respond to any questions we had. Definitely a place that we will see if is available any time we make a trip back to our old stomping grounds!

Amazing city views

Despite getting to New York City late due to airline cancellations, our place was large and was able to hold our group of 9 very well. Matt was readily available for any of our needs and even provided a lovely hamper when most of the party missed a couple of our days there. We enjoyed what time we had and the instructions re public transport and amenities were good. The air conditioners were most appreciated as it it hot and humid at this time in NYC.

Peter and Anton were within minutes to respond to any concern. Saved money by cooking breakfast, night view is spectacular. Parking accommodations was super helpful. Living quarters were clean, only drawback is the cool spiral staircase. If bringing a elderly or physically challenged loved one, the staircase is snug. Otherwise, we hope to return. Awesome folks to rent from!!!
