New York Accommodation - 1 Bedroom Rental in Morningside Heights, Harlem (NY-11526)

This apartment met our expectations. The description is in keeping with our experience... no unpleasant surprise. The owners welcomed us cheerfully and answered all our questions. They were also available during our stay. Thanks to its location, you can easily access all convenience stores and this area of Harlem is very pleasant. The subway is a 2 to 3-minute walk and will enable you to travel very easily.

Apartment is well-located, quiet, well-served and nice. Warm welcome. I enjoyed the garden in which I could eat, much appreciated given the lack of light in this basement apartment.
Only drawback: rental must be paid in cash only, which is not very convenient.

Nice, quiet and well located apartment. It is spacious but unfortunately with a group of 6 you have to unfold the sofabeds each night and toilets are in the bathroom. Landlords are nice and welcoming.

The apartment is perfectly located in a nice area close to Central Park and only 50 meters to Morningside park. There are several good restaurants close to the apartment that the owner recommended. The Metro is to very close that took us down to Midtown. The owner was very helpful for instance she arranged the transfer. The quiet area was perfect for our family with three teenagers.

The owner and husband very helpful
He took our bags in for us
The owner explained how things worked in the apartment to us
She left a map of the city
Had 2pages of info about shopping for groceries and food and also for bargain shopping for out of town visitors. She also told us about the subway and what tickets price woul suit us best
She booked a taxi for us when leaving
She was very very pleasant and a pleasure to deal with
She had info books on NY and NY State for us to use
I would recommend her apartment via Habitat to other friends vising New York
I do hope to return one day in the future

The location was perfect for our stay in NYC as close to Columbia University (walking distance), subways, parks and some great restaurants and bars; there were also nearby supermarkets. The apartment has everything you need for up to 6 people including a terrace and grassed garden at the rear, off the bedroom. Plenty of wardrobe space, lovely marble tiled bathroom and the kitchen has everything necessary with a large fridge. The only suggestion I would make is that a full sized ironing board is supplied - currently there is a small board that sits on a bench top. Besides heating and air con there are also fans in the bedroom and lounge which is preferable for me. The owners live upstairs and are available by email - once checked in they do not bother you but are available if you have any queries. Our stay was great and we would recommend booking this apartment and we will certainly keep it in mind for any future visit to NYC. This was our first visit to NYC and we felt very safe in this area and in this apartment.

Good, but the owner called attention to the air conditioning use.

The ground floor apartment with it's own entrance is lovely furnished, very clean and well equipped.

We, a family of three, felt comfortable and safe in this striving neighbourhood of lower Harlem with it's many Restaurants (even late at night). The windows and two doors of the apartment are well protected by sturdy iron bars. Our teenager slept pretty comfortably on the Futonbed in the spacious living room. The parents slept very well in the bedroom that is overlooking the private patio with garden chairs, table and fenced in lawn.

The owner's familiy is caring. They live in the same building and can be reached easily if one needs some quick advice. The apartment is close to the next subway station, although not on the express line.

We had 10 days here and it was very good. The apartment was clean and tidy and worked well for us. We had a couple of plumbing issues and the owner, who lived upstairs, sorted them out very quickly for us.

The location was good, being in easy walking distance of a good subway station and there were food shops close by too.

The apartment was perfect! The owner was very friendly and helpful. The apartment was very clean and had everything you could possible need and was so well organized, very detailed in everyday. The location was not a problem but at times a little tiring getting to downtown but this was only because I had my son with me and had to go up and down the subway with a stroller otherwise the location is okay.

The area the apartment is in is okay, the size of apartment, cleanliness and access to garden /terrace makes up for an extra subway ride. I would defiantly recommend this apartment. The only negative is the fridge, I am a very light sleeper and could hear the fridge whilst lying with my son in the living/futon area but as I slept in the main bedroom most nights this was not a problem as the bedroom is so quiet.

Thanks to Habitat for finding the property, Gisela was very helpful and professional.

The vacation rental was better than we'd thought. The photos let you foresee a clean and rather well equipped accommodation but it was better than on the photos. We were 6 and we had enough space for everyone. Very large bed in the bedroom and 2 very comfortable sofa-beds.

The subway was 2 minutes away and we could be downtown in 15 minutes. Central Park is also a 2-minute walk.

On top of that, the hostess is very nice and always available if needed.

Everything was very good. Maybe the futon bed in the livingroom was a bit to hard, so maybe it could have been better if I have had asked for en extra mattress. All of us really enjoyed our stay at this nice apartment and our kind accommodation owner. Next time we travel to NY we look forward to try to book this apartment.

All went well.

The apartment was our first as part of our first ever trip to New York. The apartment itself is fantastic, plenty of space and great amenities. Our hosts were brilliant, they were nothing but helpful and made our introduction to New York all the more pleasant and pain free.

We would definitely be recommending this accommodation to anyone visiting New York.

Very big apartment compared with the pictures, extremely clean and quiet with all the comfort you need to live as you do when you're home.

The owner is always available by phone or email or live to answer your questions on New York and what to do. Thanks for everything Julien and Anna.

Extremely beautiful apartment, perfectly equipped and appointed, clean and quiet. The garden area is undeniably a plus. The owners were perfect: welcoming, always ready to help out to make your stay smooth whilst remaining discreet. All this greatly helped make our stay very enjoyable.

If the apartment location seems at first a bit far from Lower Manhattan, the subway very close to the apartment wipes out any drawback.

In a word, I highly recommend this vacation rental.

Our stay in New York was even more enjoyable as we could live in this apartment which is very nice and very well located. Perfect for 4 people. Very pleasant little garden! The owners are delightful and give very good advice.

The vacation rental was absolutely brilliant, very quiet and clean, very nicely appointed. The owners were very friendly, uncomplicated and helpful. We felt very comfortable and would go back without hesitation.

I was very impressed. Place was immaculate. We had both ac units running while there, we didn't hear any noise outside. Street was quiet and safe. We took the subway and it was only a 5 minute walk to the apartment.

Spending our days in the hustle and bustle of NYC, going back to the apartment and quiet neighborhood was wonderful.

This was a great location and apartment; close to Harlem and Columbia.

Everything was perfect. Very nice accommodating owner, fantastic vacation rental and location. Would return in a heartbeat. We had a successful week in NY.

Good location for this vacation rental, a 3 minute walk to Central Park north, very well served by subway and bus.. Functional and nicely decorated (better in reality than it looks on the photos).. The accommodation owners live upstairs and are very friendly and give good advice.. The 4 of us spent a very nice fortnight in NYC..Patrick and Family..

We were astonished to be in such a calm district. The apartment was very clear and nothing missed. The owners are charming people. Our stay in this vacation rental was super and we were very close to the center of New York.

If we must go to your city again we would not hesitate a second to re-let this apartment.

The apartment was great - nicely furnished, clean, spacious and good location. The owners were very friendly and helpful, we'll definitely want to use this apartment again if we need to.Thanks for your help

We realy enjoyed this [New York] apartment, very comfortable, very clean, a lot of space. We also appreciate the area where it was located, close to Central Park and Morningside Park, and we were surprised about no noise. [Owner] welcomed us, and helped a lot in our choices. We had a good time, and will for sure recommend it.

Our stay in New York was greatly enhanced by the ability to stay in an apartment that fit our needs so well. What made a great difference too was the friendliness and helpfulness of the landlord.

The apartment was clean and well maintained and had all the necessary amenities.

Thanks for providing the service and ease of transaction. The biggest factor that made me choose New York Habitat was the ability to reserve an apartment using a credit card payment

Nothing to declare. [The New York apartment] was absolutely perfect, very clean, very quiet and a very good Welcome from [the accommodation owner].

We found our [New York] accommodation very nice [...] The apartment was very clean, and really like the photo documentation. The owner was very gentle and helped us in some situation.
Hope to take your service again in the future.

Everything about my experience with New York Habitat has been wonderful. I thought the website was fantastic with lots of detail about the apartments and it was a very easy website to navigate.

[My contact at New York Habitat] was extremely helpful and very quick to answer all my questions. The whole process of finding an apartment and acquiring it was unbelievably easy.

The apartment [Uptown, New York] was excellent, and actually better than the photos on the website showed. The owners had many helpful brochures inside the apartment for things to do in New York, and I was extremely pleased that they had provided information on things in the local area as well which was very helpful. [The owner] was very accommodating with any request that we had and we could not have asked for better service.

I would not hesitate to use NY Habitat again and in fact have been singing your praises to all my friends!

We had a wonderful 8 days long stay in New York. The apartment was great and the owner was really kind. A very calm place, a large space (including a small garden) and fullly equipped for 4. Nothing bad to say.

The neighborhood has a great location and there were many shops around the area. A subway stop was nearby. All this helped make our stay unforgettable.

The apartment is very nice and useful. Thank you. You can suggest it to other people...

We had an excellent stay in New York and our apartment was OUTSTANDING. It was very clean, very comfortable beds, newly renovated, many comforts of home, great location and we felt very safe there. The Landlords live upstairs and were kind and helpful. It was also a very reasonable price.

We would recommend this apartment to all of our friends who plan to visit New York in the future. Thank you for your assistance with these accommodations. We couldn't have been more pleased.

We were happy with the apartment we stayed in, there was very little to complain about... the only thing that we felt was missing was (especially for girls!): a full length mirror.... clock/radio/cd player..... other than that, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The landlord was helpful and we would definitely consider staying there again.
