One of the best stay I had in a while
We stayed in this property (me and my cousins) as we had planned a get together in NYC. We all loved this place. The property was super clean, well stocked with necessary items like bath towels, kitchen supplies etc. A lot of space for 6 of us. Plus there are board games as well. Tariq was a great host and he responded in timely manner for any queries we had. He also adjusted with any requests we had which was a very nice extra touch. I am glad I booked this place and will definitely book this same property next time we are in town.

A Home Away From Home!
My Family came to visit and we stay at this location. It was BEAUTIFUL! Looks are deceiving! From the outside you would never realize how spacious, comfortable and beautiful this house was. My Family and I loved it! Around the house were signs that said make yourself at home and that's exactly what it felt like a home away from home! The Host (Tariq) was easy to contact and talk to. He had QR Codes around the house to give us instructions and information we might need during our stay. There were 3 Beautifully decorated Bedrooms as in the pictures shown. Each room had its own QR Code with information. The kitchen (also had a QR Code too) was equipped with everything you would need and expect in a kitchen. It was very accommodating to our needs! If ever in Newark this is the location to stay! A Home Away From Home!
