Very nice apartment tastefully decorated in an old building in Manhattan. Our stay was excellent in this accommodation, which is close to all amenities while remaining relatively quiet. The owner is accommodating and available in case of any questions or problems in the accommodation. However, the person in charge of the cleaning came early in the morning on the day of our departure, without being announced. |

Very nice apartment, very well-located, 7 minutes away from subway line 1, very comfortable and quiet. Perfect for two couples: there are 2 bathrooms, 3 toilets and a very spacious living room. Bedrooms are upstairs. Very tastefully decorated. The landlady is very discreet and reliable. |

Review by: Edouard L., Aug 21 2018 Accommodation Rental: 9 days |
Very nice apartment located in Harlem, comfortable, well-equipped and air-conditioned, with its two bedrooms, two bathrooms and its small terrace. Very high quality bedding. It is perfect for 4 adults. Even if it is located in the north of Manhattan, there are two subway stations a 10-minute walk away (one of them is an express station, which is time-saving). Shops, restaurants and other services are a 5-minute walk away from the apartment. The area is quiet and the place is well soundproofed. The landlady, Christa, welcomed us nicely at the end of the day and gave us all the details. Please note, though, that there is no washing machine, but there is a laundromat next door. I highly recommend this place. |

Review by: Isabelle T., Jun 20 2017 From: France, Accommodation Rental: 5 days |
This duplex apartment is really beautiful. It is very comfortable and tastefully decorated by the landlady. No drawback except for the duvet in one of the bedroom which was a bit small. The area is quiet and the neighborhood is pleasant. There are many excellent restaurants nearby if you don't want to cook. |
Review by: Dominique H., May 23 2017 From: France, Accommodation Rental: 7 days |
Very nice and spacious apartment. Next to subway. Very quiet area and pleasant street. The landlady waited for us until past midnight on the day of our arrival. Apartment is very well-equipped in every way. We recommend this vacation rental. |
Review by: Juliette S., Apr 29 2017 Accommodation Rental: 6 days |
Welcoming, spacious and comfortable apartment where we felt quickly at home. Well located in Harlem, next to Broadway and a few minutes to subway station. Nearby shops. Traditional New York street lined with brownstones. Nicely welcomed by the landlady. |
Review by: Dominique M., Oct 18 2016 From: France, Accommodation Rental: 7 days |
The apartment was very clean and comfortable, in a very quiet street and close to all shops. Thanks to the nearby subway station, we could travel throughout the city. I recommend this place and when we will be back in New York, we will choose this apartment without a doubt. |
Review by: Stephanie D., Oct 09 2016 Accommodation Rental: 5 days |
The landlady was very welcoming, pleasant and available. The apartment was splendid and very clean. Area was quiet and safe. Just a bit far from Manhattan but we rented it with full knowledge of the facts. We were delighted to rent this apartment. |

Hello, |
Review by: Franck B., Aug 23 2016 Accommodation Rental: 7 days |
This vacation rental is exactly as advertised on its description. Clean and well-equipped apartment. The landlady greeted us when we arrived, she is nice and we sent each other emails several times before our stay. |
Review by: David Z., Aug 18 2016 From: France, Accommodation Rental: 7 days |
Positive points: very pleasant stay in a spacious apartment. Quiet neighborhood. Location is not an inconvenience if you choose to stay in Harlem. By the way, you can quickly reach the heart of Manhattan with the express subway lines located nearby. Restaurants and convenience stores are also close by. No weak points. I can't remember if the lack of washing machine was mentioned or not. If not, it should be highlighted to avoid any misunderstanding. |

Review by: Jean-luc S., Jun 01 2016 Accommodation Rental: 7 days |
I highly recommend this apartment. The delightful landlady gave us some very good advice. The apartment is clean, nicely decorated and well-equipped. It is located in a very quiet area, which could seem far from Downtown Manhattan but you can actually be there in about 20-30 minutes. |
Review by: Jean-luc S., May 18 2016 Accommodation Rental: 7 days |
Very pleasant and nicely decorated apartment. Quiet and well located. Effectively welcomed by the landlady who gave me sound advice. I would recommend it without a doubt. |

Most beautiful apartment, nicely furnished, great connections via MTA (line A and 1), quiet neighborhood, I can only recommend it |
Review by: Katja B., Oct 24 2015 From: Germany, Accommodation Rental: 7 days |
The apartment is located in a side street. There is plenty of shopping, restaurants and fast food chain restaurants available. The subway is located within walking distance, only a few minutes away. We felt totally safe and secure. Within about 20 mins., the subway takes you to Times Square - and we were just happy to escape the crowds for a while, and to have the refuge of an apartment in a quiet location. The landlady is very nice and flexible when it comes to arrival and departure. She also speaks German. The apartment is quite modern and nicely furnished. During that week we lacked nothing and we'd gladly come again! |

Very pleasant neighborhood. Comfortable and nicely furnished apartment. It was really a nice apartment. Very well located and the area is very enjoyable. |
Review by: Luc V., Oct 11 2015 From: France, Accommodation Rental: 7 days |
Harlem neighborhood is well served by subway. Very animated but quiet. Black, Hispanic and white people live next to each other. There are a lot of nice townhouses (row houses) from the 1930's. It is a nice and spacious duplex apartment, very bright, with a view on the garden from one side of the building. It is decorated in a modern and high quality style, and the kitchen is very well-equipped. Bedrooms are lightly furnished. The one which overlooks the street suffers a bit from traffic noise in the morning. The landlady welcomed us nicely. We had a pleasant stay and we could easily rest in the apartment after spending the day in Downtown Manhattan. |
Review by: Jean Pierre D., Oct 05 2015 From: France, Accommodation Rental: 12 days |
Strengths: quiet, two independent bathrooms, apartment decorated with taste, nice owner. Weaknesses: in one bedroom there was little space between the bed and the walls. |
Review by: Isabelle M., Sep 01 2015 From: France, Accommodation Rental: 9 days |
Perfect apartment that allowed us to come home in a quiet environment after walking across New York streets. The metro is 4 blocks away. The apartment is excellent. Very quiet neighborhood. No complaints and in line with the online description in every way. |
Review by: Martine S., Jun 29 2015 From: France, Accommodation Rental: 6 days |
Practical and well-appointed apartment. Quiet place located far from the hustle and bustle of central Manhattan. We felt right at home during our vacation. |
Review by: Dimitri C., Jun 17 2015 From: France, Accommodation Rental: 7 days |
The apartment is well located, not far from the subway station and bus stops. There are many convenience stores (supermarkets, restaurants, bars). The apartment is as described, very clean. The landlady welcomed us very nicely, she even managed to deal with time constraints (late arrival or early departure). |

Review by: Thierry O., May 11 2015 From: France, Accommodation Rental: 7 days |
Very nice duplex apartment in a quiet neighborhood. Tastefully decorated and very well equipped. Even if it is located in Upper Harlem, the apartment is next to subway stations which quickly take you to Downtown Manhattan. |
Review by: Valerie B., Apr 30 2015 From: France, Accommodation Rental: 7 days |
This house is located in a pretty street with aligned brownstones. Though located next to Broadway and Amsterdam avenues, it is a quiet haven of rest in which we enjoyed coming back after spending a day in the hustle and bustle of Downtown Manhattan. Great connection with the subway (the express line reaches Times Square in 15 minutes). Everything is very tidy and in a perfect condition. Bedding is fine (but quilts were too small for double beds). Kitchen is ideally equipped if you want to cook (fridge is small but there is also a big separated freezer). There is a supermarket close by for shopping. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. The landlady lives on the ground floor (separated from the rental) or in another house (according to her schedule). She will not make conversation or give you some advice but at least, she is discreet... There is someone renting the basement (and the adjoining garden), but you can't hear anything upstairs. In short: we truly enjoyed our stay in this apartment which turned out to be even better than the featured pictures. |
Review by: Catherine C., Apr 13 2015 From: Switzerland, Accommodation Rental: 6 days |
Bad welcome. Delayed arrival due to some formalities at the airport, the owner had to wait. No explanations about garbage, cleaning products, etc. |
Answer by: Accommodation Owner Apr 22 2015 |
Thank you for the review. I try to welcome all my guests warmly, I'm sorry if it was rushed this time due to the schedule change! I give all my guests an instruction sheet for the apartment, but I wish you had asked me if you had any questions. I hope you had a great stay nevertheless! |

Review by: Susanne E., Oct 22 2014 From: Germany, Accommodation Rental: 5 days |
The best that could happen to us in terms of dwellings in New York! Very nice apartment with lots of room and comfort, which allows you to digest the overkill of input from the city! Stores with plenty on offer for home cooking but also pubs, restaurants, and cafes in close proximity. |
Review by: Chandra F., Oct 02 2014 From: Canada, Accommodation Rental: 8 days |
The apartment was fantastic. We loved the mannor in which it was decorated and how clean and neat and orderly it was. You could tell that the person who owned it took great pride in their living space and had a genuine interest in architecture and design. The space was aesthetically pleasing and showed exactly as what was depicted in the pictures. We felt very safe in the neighborhood and was happy with how close it was to the subway system and the amenities close by. We wouldn't hesitate to rent this property again or recommend the property to others. |
Review by: Sandrine C., Sep 02 2014 From: France, Accommodation Rental: 7 days |
This vacation rental-although far north of Manhattan- is very well located between 2 subway stations and close to small supermarkets. We appreciated being away from the tumult of NY more touristy neighborhoods. |
