About this property
Urban Nest #5 | Penthouse Suite with Skyline Views
Summary:
Welcome to our master apartment located in the top story. Part of a newly remodeled 1900’s building, we are conveniently located in the heart of downtown Schenectady. Experience simple and modern while being just steps away from Proctor’s theater, Union College, MVP, movies, dining, festivals, concerts, arts, nightlife and shops. The perfect stay for professionals, an adventurous getaway to explore hidden gems in the Upstate area. This vacation getaway will serve you as a trip to remember.
The Space:
Experience home away from home at our brand new master apartment uniquely designed by a local interior designer featured on HGTV. As you walk through the door, you are welcomed with oversized floor to ceiling windows that bring in an abundance of natural light and gorgeous views of the historic Electric City. The luxe custom kitchen with beautiful gold shelving finishes were built to make cooking during your stay fun and easy. Our bright and modern design with pops of color invites you to relax while also inspiring you to have fun and explore your creativity. Everything you need is just steps away within walking distance including the popular Jay Street shops, Amtrak station, festivals, weekend farmers market, Proctor’s theater, and the best dining restaurants in the Capital Region to choose from. We are only a short Uber drive to the River’s Casino, the hospital and near hiking trails.

★Laundry Use★
Please note that we have a washer and dryer on site that is located in the common hallway area. It is a shared washer/dryer for all of our guests.
★ Before You Book ★
We are located in the heart of a downtown city area which means the building is susceptible to loud noises, sirens, music, anything you would typically find in a downtown city area. This charming historical building is also 125 years old with thinner walls.
-Please note that we do not have parking on the premises. There is paid street parking available and we will provide apps and parking instructions to make your experience more convenient.
-This is a 3 story building so there are short flights of stairs. Please consider this before booking if you have any challenges with stairs.
-We have a strict NO SMOKING policy. Any indication of smoking will result in a $500 smoke removal & clean up fee.
Interaction with Guests:
We won't be available in person, and prefer communicating through the app.
