  • This apartment was perfect for our family of three for our week-long vacation. The location and neighborhood is outstanding. The apartment was so quiet, we slept with the windows open. Vera was responsive to emails and offered great neighborhood suggestions. The Sunday market on Columbus Ave, a block away, was a nice surprise. We hope to return to New York and would be delighted to stay in this apartment again.

  • 4th april 09 for 1 week. Two adults and three teenage boys shared this apartment. the boys thought the apartment was really cool. The location is excellent. The neighbourhood has a homely feel, often meeting the same people twice. Very close to excellent restaurants, food markets, pharmacy etc. Practically steps away from Central Park. Very closse to bus and subway. The apartment was very well equipped. Beds were very clean and comfortable. The living area was very spacious and the bedrooms were adequate. There was great storage for suitcases and shopping. Would recommend this apartment and the three boys are already asking when they can go back again. Vanessa and Mary

  • Our family feels very fortunate to have found this listing on vrbo. We completely enjoyed 53 W 94th St. during our visit to NYC. It was absolutely perfect in every single aspect. We enjoyed the neighborhood market and restaurants that Vera recommended. Following our busy days exploring the city Vera and Joe’s home was the perfect place to restore our energy for the next day of activity. The beds, pillows and linens were cozy and comfy. The kitchen was well supplied with everything we needed. My greatest appreciation was Vera's delightful willingness to help with every aspect of our stay. My only regret was that our family didn't get to meet her in person! We will definitely keep their name on file in case we ever travel back to the 'Big Apple'!

  • My daughter and I recently spent a “theatre week” in New York. We thoroughly enjoyed our comfortable and convenient home away from home in Vera and Joe’s apartment and agree wholeheartedly with previous comments. We especially appreciated the very comfortable beds, the spacious kitchen and full sized, deluxe washer and dryer. It is also worth emphasizing how very accommodating Vera was every step of the way. She responded promptly to our e-mails, answered all our many questions and led us through the rental process very efficiently. She genuinely wants you to have the best experience possible while discovering the vibrant city that is New York.

  • We stayed - 4 persons - in Joe and Vera`s apartment in october. For the slow Danes New York is an amazing metropol with unforgetable impressions running from a football match in Giants Stadium over a nudlesoup in Chinatown to a quiet sunday music session in Central Park. After a hectic day programme we enjoyed being back in Joe and Vera`s apartment. We only need one word to discribe this apartment. MAGNIFICENT ! Also the surroundings are exellent with Mani Market and Central Park just around the corner. But our best memories we have from our contact with Joe and Vera - they are fantastic people, who guide and help you all the way. They are very informative and meet you in a very obliging way. We will highly recommend Joe and Vera`s apartment. If you are going to NY this is simply the best. Fisker Århus Denmark

  • I cannot say enough good things about our trip to New York. It is always a little unsettling to send money to someone you don't know and then hoping the product that you were promised is there when you arrive. You don't need to worry about that with Vera & Joe. They even had backup plans. The neighbourhood was safe, clean and we had a great time eating, shopping & meeting the people who lived there. We will definitely be back. New York was amazing from the friendly, courteous service to the exciting atmosphere. This apartment has everything you need right off Central Park and the subway.

  • My wife and I stayed in the apartment for 2 weeks. It was fabulous. The apartment is extremely clean and quiet - and we had everything we needed to make us feel like "real new yorkers". The area is perfect - close to central park, the subways and great restaurants. Vera and Joe took care of everything - and were extremely responsive. We would certainly love to rent the apartment again during a future visit to NYC. Thank you!

  • Our family stayed in the apartment Thanksgiving week and found the place and the location terrific. It is near trains and buses and you can easily walk across Central Park. We walked across it to the Metropolitan Museum. Having the wireless access,the washer & dryer, the dishwasher and enough heat made it a wonderful vacation. Many nearby restaurants and the wonderful market suggested by Vera contributed to my weight gain, again a wonderful vacation. The apartment was even better than the photos. And it was really clean when we arrived. The stairway lighting was really good. We certainly would stay here again.

  • The explanation on the web is honest and is exactly what you get when you'd stay at Joe and Vera's property on the upper west side. It is cozy, and is very close to all sorts of transportaion link (i.e. subway lines and cross-town and up/downtown busses) and the size of the unit is generous for the NY standard. Vera was very accomodating and responsive to our requests prior to/during our 2 weeks stay recnetly. We'd especially recommend the apt. for a young family of 3 to 4 as the extra bed room is something you don't get in the city very often. We'd certainly contact them of the availability for our next annual visit to the city. Johann and Kyoko (former New Yorkers from Switzerland)

  • Joe & Vera: Our family stayed in your apartment in April and it was just perfect for us. It was very cozy and well-equipped with everything that we needed. We especially appreciated the wireless internet, voice over internet phone and in-unit washer and dryer. Thanks for your recommendations on places to eat and shop. The apartment location was very convenient and safe. We would definitely stay here again, as well as recommend it to friends. P.S. Thanks for helping us locate a Pack'N Play for our little baby!
