Clean, newly renovated, modern amenities. Got exactly what we were expecting. Nice/safe neighborhood, close to transit and eateries. We were next to a school but it was summer so don’t know how loud it could be in the morning. Great owners respond quickly to our questions. Excellent time and would do it again. Our first visit to NJ/NY.

Fantastic property!

My family had a wonderful stay in this comfortable, well appointed, nicely furnished home. The space was spotless and quiet. Host was very responsive and communication was easy. It was about a 20-25 minute walk to Harrison Station to catch the PATH train--a little further than we anticipated. And about a 45 minute PATH ride into downtown Manhattan. Would highly recommend for relatively easy access to NYC with extra room for a family to stretch out at an affordable rate. Would book again.
