Raza 17/08/2015 3 / 10 Property is very large for NYC, especially the bedrooms which all had a reading chair and storage which provides quiet space for everyone when you are travelling with a big group for a week. Location is awesome, both for walking in neighbourhood and access to the subway. Rental process was straight forward and communication with the owner was fluid. A good option for anyone needing a big property. |

Mahi 17/08/2015 7 / 10 My group of 6 stayed at this beautiful flat for a family vacation and it was amazing! Our stay was picture perfect, from the great location and super easy and straightforward access to the flat to the comfortable beds with nice linens, fully equipped kitchen, and beautifully appointed and cozy living room that was so nice for gathering with the family. The neighborhood is great - very close to Times Square and the theaters. We walked everywhere - to Central Park, Midtown, Rockefeller Center, St. Patrick's Cathedral. Super close to the subway station for longer trips. The street itself has several nice cafes and restaurants, and there was a great little market only 2 blocks away as well. This place is a gem and we couldn't have been more pleased. I hope it's available the next time we come to New York. |

Masnha 17/08/2015 3 / 10 We were a group of eight adults, and it was the perfect place for us .Terrific location! So close to the subway that you could get anywhere in Manhattan in minutes. Tempting restaurants right on the same block: Ippudo and The Brew House were great finds! Lisa was easy to work with, and her charming home was just as described. Four spacious bedrooms with comfy beds; a nice living and dining room where all eight of us could hang out together. So much better than staying in four hotel rooms, as we could lounge about together in the mornings. We'd love to come stay again! |

masoom 17/08/2015 9 / 10 We stayed in this townhouse in March of 2015. It was a mother/daughter springbreak trip for our daughters’ senior year of high school. We had a total of 8 people and the house was great! It looks just like it does in the pictures. It was so nice after a busy day of sightseeing to be able to come back to the townhouse and relax all together. The living room/dining room area was very comfortable for all of us to be together. The location was perfect for us! We were able walk to Times Square, Rockefeller Center, the Circle Line Pier, Broadway shows and train lines. It was the first time to New York for most of our group and we found the city easy to navigate from where we were. There were numerous restaurants close by and a number of grocery and pharmacies within walking distance. We stayed in the upper unit and the only warning I would offer to people is that the stairs are steep and you will be climbing 2 flights of stairs often. There is a lower unit available that might be a good choice… |
