  Although the picture accurately reflects the apartment, it seemed much smaller than we had expected. It doesn't have a warm feel, but rather drab and cold. The building itself has a very foul odor to it that sometimes seeped into the apartment. There were 3 of us staying for a week and each only had one hot shower - all the others were less than desirable. We were given 3 towels for the week and 1 roll of toilet paper and needed to call for more. Overall I would say our experience was "just ok".

  The apartment is very spacious and clean, although worn in places. It had all the little extras that were useful (hairdryer, iron, kettle, bagel toaster - essential for New York!). It is up one flight of stairs, faces the back garden and wonderfully peaceful. The location is unbeatable - half a block from the B,C subway line, half a block from buses on Central Park West & Columbus Avenue and half a block from Central Park. Dov, the owner, was responsive and very helpful. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and would recommend this apartment to anyone.

  This is HUGE as far as studio apartments go. Apartment was VERY clean. The bathroom is showing it's age, but that is expected in NYC in my opinion. Otherwise, the apartment shows it's age in a good way- we detail and ambiance found only in historical buildings. It was also amazing how quiet this apartment is.. Not only does the window back up to the garden, but the actual street is extremely quiet. Yet, it's like a 2 minute walk to the metro station, which, by the way, dumps you into Rock Center/5th Ave, etc in just a few quick stops. Central Park is just across the street from the metro and the south side of the big lake and you are right smack on the loop that takes you to the MET, turtle pond, Sweedish Cottage, etc. Dov, the owner, was amazingly responsive. In fact, I ended up at his place because several other listings I looked at people would not respond. Dov either picked up right away or called me back within 2 minutes the 4-5 times I called him. I highly recommend this as a great place to stay short or long term for your time in NYC. PS, the neighborhood is very safe feeling and Pete's Pizza around the corner was awesome : )

  This apartment and the whole building is old and quaint. There is only one flight of stairs to reach the apartment, so that helps if you have a lot of luggage. The apartment is maintained and clean, but its age is showing in places. It has a beautiful ornamented high ceiling, very beautiful fireplace and parquet floors. It is very spaceous.The kitchen is very small but has everything you need and the bathroom is ok. The apartment faces the backyard, so it is very quiet. There were no surprises - the pictures are acurate and show the apartment's true appearance. It is adequately furnished, the beds are comfortable, there is enough storage space, and really - there is everything you need. Some hooks for hanging towels would have been nice, but that's really nit picking. The four of us had a great time, and it was a wonderful place to come to after a day of exploring New York. The neighbourhood is absolutely beautiful and peaceful and literally minutes away from the Central Park, Columbus Ave and 86 St subway station. The owner was very nice and helped us with the luggage and was always available when we had questions about anything. We loved it. We hope that the apartment will be available again when we come and visit and we would be happy to recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great place to stay in NY.

  The best thing about the apartment is its location on a beautiful old brownstone bldg st. In the upper west side. The apartment retains some of the original features of the building, gorgeous high decorated ceiling and parquet floors. The kitchen was minuscule, and the bathroom just adequate. Everything was very clean, just suffering from age and disrepair in places.
