If you are uncertain about the exact dates you need, you can make an estimate. Be sure to select dates that reflect the approximate length of your stay. The main dividing line between our rentals is whether you are looking for accommodations for under 1 month or 1 month and over.

  • Stays under 1 month would direct you to our Vacation Rentals or Bed & Breakfast options that are available by the night or week.

Vacation Rentals are full private apartments for stays of under 1 month.

Bed & Breakfast accommodations are guest rooms in shared apartments for stays of under 1 month.

  • A search for stays of 1 month or over would direct you to our Furnished Rentals or Apartment Share options.

Furnished Rentals are full private apartments for stays of 1 month or more

Apartment Shares are rentals of a room in a shared apartment with one or more roommates for stays of 1 month or more.

Once you put in your dates, you will see under the “check-in” and “check-out” tabs that options will appear. You can select if you are looking for an entire private apartment or a shared accommodation, such as bed & breakfast or a shared apartment. Select the dot that best matches which you are looking for.

Apartment ID Search

When you click on the Menu tab, you can also search for an apartment by its ID number. Just type in the ID# where it says “enter apartment ID,” and press enter or click search.

  • You can find an apartment’s ID # located at the top of each apartment page (ex. NY-####). This is a good way to retrieve an apartment you were interested in that you may not find again when running another search.
  • Also, when speaking with one of our agents, you can refer to apartments that interest you by their ID#.
