The apartment is very nice, although it could do with a few improvements. Desire is very considerate. The proximity of the metro is convenient. On the other hand, noise pollution can be a nuisance for those not used to city life.
The host was amazing to deal with and when you are doing a trip to NYC that helps a lot. Place was super clean! I donât think you can find a better value in Manhattan. Honestly book this place. 2 bedrooms. Itâs not too cramped. They keep it very clean. And the AC unit actually works and keeps you cool. I have stayed in a lot of places in Manhattan and for the money this is top notch!
We had a lovely stay here for 3 nights in July. The space is in Spanish Harlem and provided us with good access to the 4, 5, and 6 trains to go to tht Bronx and lower Manhattan. The space was clean and updated. The air conditioners kept us cool despite high temperatures. The beds and pillows were comfortable. There is a washer and dryer in the hallway which you can use for a few dollars paid through an app you can download.
I For a short family trip with friends, this apartment was a great choice. Comfortable, convenient, and reasonably priced for New York City. Would definitely consider staying again! The check-in process could have been smoother. We had a bit of confusion with the keypad instructions, but the host responded quickly. Host is very approachable and very well connected. Excellent locationâclose to public transportation, shops, restaurants, and major attractions. We could walk to a few places, which was a big plus.
There are many upsides to this property. (1) The host was very responsive and helpful (2) Check in was easy. (3) Having 3 bedrooms, a sitting area and a small kitchen was wonderful (4) the games were a bonus. Now, there are a few things to know. Not cons, just information (1) The subway station is a solid 10 minute walk away. (2). This area of East Harlem is diverse, working class, and full of families. We actually loved the neighborhood and everyone was so nice. (Check out La Tropezienne Bakery for amazing morning pastries, Effyâs Kitchen for sit-down breakfast, and MaliNee for delicious Thai food).
There's a lot to like about this apartment. The bed was comfortable, the air conditioning was great, and the Internet connection was fast and reliable. Desire's communication was excellent. She really put herself out to make our stay as comfortable as possible. It is a bit of a rough area with some loud and obnoxious people on the street. But, the neighbours in the building seem like decent people. The cleanliness wasn't quite what I had hoped it would be - especially the bathroom. Also, the oven was out of order, so it was a bit difficult to cook meals. Also, it would have been helpful to know the correct location before booking, since the actual address was further from the subway station and central park than expected. Having said that, for the price it was still a reasonably convenient location.
Close to subway in a relatively quiet part of the city. A few minutes' walk to Central Park, we found it very easy to come and go as we explored NYC. Great communication with the host
Angefangen mit einer falschen Adresse und einem falschen Hauptfoto im Inserat ist dieses Appartement doch mit einigen MĂ€ngeln behaftet. Wir waren 20 Minuten vor dem CheckIn am Appartement und haben einen Herren unter der Dusche angetroffen. Dieser erklĂ€rte uns zwar, dass er noch das Appartement reinigen wĂŒrde, aber dem war nicht so. Uns wĂŒrde ein völlig unsauberes und unaufgerĂ€umtes Appartment ĂŒbergeben. BettwĂ€sche und HandtĂŒcher waren fleckig und voller Haare. Die Kontaktaufnahme mit Desire verlief unkompliziert und sie bot uns eine Nachreinigung am nĂ€chsten Tag an. Da wir uns entschieden das Putzen selbst zu ĂŒbernehmen, hat sie uns letztlich 100 USD erstattet und am Folgetag frische WĂ€sche gebracht.Das Appartment ist nicht, wie in die Anzeige angegeben neu, sondern doch schon in die Jahre gekommen und nicht mehr ganz so up to date. Die Lage an einer sehr belebten Kreuzung in East Harlem verspricht wenig Schlaf und entspricht eben nicht der angegeben Location im Inserat.Was wirklich fehlt in einem Appartemen fĂŒr 4 istAblagefadauSchl cowr Haare. Hand fleckig und voller Haare.
Overall this place was cute and cozy. It was fine for 3 adults. Location was near by buses and trains which was convenient. Also plenty of delis, and other places for food and groceries. Easy check-in and we were able to drop off bags before check-in. However, i will say that overall cleanliness could be better. Had to sweep the floor as soon as we got there a little after 3pm. Although we did not use the oven -and stove as we opted to eat out, it did not seem clean, oven door looked broken from the side. Additionally host sent a refund by mistake, in which I had to go through the process and make that payment amount back, and now hoping it doesn't mess with our full payment amt.
The host communicated well and made sure all of our questions were quickly answered. The apartment's decor is fun and exactly like the picture. Super cute! The location is well into Harlem, so keep that in mind. It was about an 18-minute walk to the closest subway, so we used Uber the whole time we were there.
Ich war mit meinen zwei Kindern 15 und 17 Jahre fĂŒr 12 Tage in New York. FĂŒr lokale VerhĂ€ltnisse war die Wohnung gut erreichbar, man hat etwa eine Stunde bis zur Innenstadt gebraucht. Die Wohnung ist von diversen Bus- und Metrostationen umgeben. Sie liegt im 1. Stock direkt an der Kreuzung 1 Avenue und 103 Street und ist unfassbar laut, Tag und Nacht. Der LĂ€rm darf einem nichts ausmachen. Ansonsten war alles da, was man braucht. Man sollte keinen europĂ€ischen Standard erwarten. Uns hat die Zeit hier sehr gefallen.
Really enjoyed our stay. Location was great so easy to multiple subway entries. Desire was so responsive to inquiries. Definitely would stay here again!!
We had a wonderful stay at your Harlem apartment! It was very well-equipped and perfect for our family of four. The game room with arcade machines was a huge hit with our kids (five stars!). The host was exceptionally friendly and check-in/out was super clear. The 10-minute walk to the subway was convenient for getting downtown. We noted the location was a couple of blocks east of the listing, but it was minor. A small suggestion: an Italian coffee pot would be nice. Overall, a fantastic experience!
I loved the apartment as well as the location. It is close to a subway, bus station, restaurants, grocery stores....basically everything you need, and it is very clean. The host was responsive and great to deal with. We truly enjoyed our stay! I recommend this rental to anyone looking to visit New York City.
Very comfortable bed and comforter, with all the necessary amenities provided: microwave, fridge, plates, cooking equipment, utensils, and TV. Clear instructions for self-check-in and a kind owner who provides water bottles and coffee K-cups.
So much better than a hotel. VERY stylish with all amenities. Great space for 4 adults. Subway 10-12 minute walk with access to most places. Lots of delis nearby to buy the essentials.
The location was ok, and the owner was nice. The carpeton the living room was dirty, linen was and matress protector were not changed, with some hair on them and the oven was with food inside and really dirty. Finally I left my wallet and a tshirt and i just came back an hour later i checked out to pick it up. the cleaning guy was stil there, then i asked him if he found something in there and he said that nothing was found.I thought he was nice, but he just lyed me, and through them away: both, shirt and pocket (or stolen them, i dont know) Im really disapoimted with him, because i did not forget at all, just realized and came as soon as i could.
We got to the apartment really late but getting in was easy with instructions from our friendly host. The apartment was clean and comfortable and we had no issues during our visit. I hope this apartment is available for our next trip to Harlem!
The host was proactive and friendly, reaching out the day before we arrived to ensure we had all the correct information. The apartment itself was very comfortable and cute. Cleanliness is excellent. The beds were comfortable. There is a grocery store about a block away which was very convenient. The apartment (located at the corner of 1st Ave and 105th) is about 3 blocks from the subway station at Lexington and 103rd. This is an urban apartment building so there is a fair amount of noise from the street and within the building. That is what I expect in NYC so it was not a problem for me.
Nice apartment with 3 small bedrooms. The 2 full beds were very comfortable. The third bed was a collapsible sofa in the game room that was very uncomfortable and way too small for any adult. Great location 7 blocks east of the Museum of the City of New York. Good access to public transportation with 2 bus stops a block away and subway 8 blocks away. The description mentions a washer and dryer but there was none. Directions for check-in and check-out were very simple but not sent by VRBO as they usually are. The host was very responsive when I reached out to get the check-in directions. I hope the host updates her description regarding the 3rd bed and the lack of washer and dryer because this is a nice place and you should rent it.
