Charming apartment and easy process

Everything exceeded our expectations. The apartment is charming and in a lovely neighborhood. Away from the more touristy areas, but with plenty to do, including nice walks. We loved our stay inside, especially the adorable kitchen. Everything we needed and more. Seamless check in and communication. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Location great but apartment was disappointing

Based on the online presentation we had expected a much nicer apartment and house. The enterance to the apartment was littered with garbage and not pleasant at all. In addition to the poor cleanness of the apartment, we had problems with the heating and thus could not enjoy our stay at the appartment in December.

A Hidden Gem in Harlem

This place is stocked with everything you’ll ever need for a great stay. The unit is well organized, clean and spacious! More space than the pictures captured. Check in was super easy and shopping, restaurants, etc. are just footsteps away. I’d stay here again without hesitation! I even saw and met a few celebrities walking in the neighborhood! What a gem in the heart or Harlem.

Holiday in NYC

Would I stay again; Yes. Spacious Property on ground flood in Harlem circa 100 mtr from Express train into Central Manhatten. Tastefully decorated, If you want to cook; then you have all the equipment you need and local Supermarket 3 blocks away (3 floors). Local restaurant Vinateria really enjoyed and it was good to get away from all the hustle of Downtime. Why not 5? Couple of fixings (bathroom towel hook) are starting to come loose, but this is all minor for the cost and space you have paid for in Harlem. It was a pleasant place to sit in evening after all the sightseeing of the day.

Harlem apartment

Apartment located just minutes from the 125th street subway station, which makes it very handy. It’s well equipped, especially the kitchen. I had booked it specifically because it had a washer & drier advertised (as I had been travelling for 10 days and this was the start of a 5 day holiday). I was therefore initially upset at the labels on the washer & drier saying they were out of use, however on contacting Sonja, she sent someone around to show how they could be used. There are parts of the apartment (paintwork, woodwork etc) that look a little unfinished and there were some cobwebs etc throughout. However, overall it’s a great place to stay.

The property needs a deep cleaning. On the surface everything appeared clean but the more you looked around you see a lot of room for improvement. Another strange thing is that the property owner had a book on the coffee table that had pictures of every item in the property and you were expected to check to make sure that everything was in the apartment. The property owner did allow us to drop off our bags early which was much appreciated. Also I did not get the information about there being no cable service until right before we went on our trip which was disappointing. My sister was eventually able to get on Direct TV so we could watch TV but the internet service was not that great and the picture kept stalling. Also we had to ask for clean towels every day. I would have thought that would have been an automatic service. The plus side was it was very close to the bus and subway so catching a ride somewhere was very easy. Overall it was OK but not that great. I probably would not try booking an apartment or house again. This was our first time trying this type of housing and we will probably stick to hotels in the future. We also checked out a day early.

The Best Getaway Ever!

From the time I first saw this lovely apartment online, I knew it was the place for us!! Everything was so convenient! We were able to find everything we needed for our stay! We cooked breakfast almost every day. We made several trips to the corner deli for bagels! Our hostess was only an email or phone call away. We would love to return to this cozy apartment someday soon!!
