A fantastic place to stay -- roomy, comfortable, and with a well-stocked kitchen and some nice extra touches (floor fans, water bottles, coffee, toiletries) that many rentals don't provide. The hosts were also responsive and easy to communicate with. Would stay here again if we returned to the area.

This was a great place to stay! We didn't get to spend to much time exploring the house or the surrounding area, just used it for sleeping and eating breakfast. Everything was clean and comfortable. The hosts were very communicative.

Adorable little space. Very private although it is shared with their property. Easy to find, easy parking and several shops within 5 minutes including 7 Brew. Fully stocked with amenities. Very respectful clean which I so appreciated considering I do have a difficult time traveling and staying in spaces that are not my own. Great hosts!!!

Great host. Very clean. Good size rental. House is 1800s and a bit musty but is updated. Beds are 6/10 for comfort.

Response from VrboOwner on 1 Sept 2025
Im sorry to hear about a musty smell in the house.. There was a guest who checked out the same day you checked in, maybe we didn't air it out enough. We will be addressing the issue to be sure it doesn't happen again. The mattresses are mid to firm.. Everyone is different i guess.

Would highly recommend

Location is great if you want something near the heart of schenetedy and it did seem to be in one of the better parts of the area. The apt itself was very clean and had all the necessities. I will definitely be looking to stay here again next year for a yearly event i attend at Proctors.

Charming, old school in-law apartment!

We loved Lisa & Steve's place. It was just right for the two of us. It was great to able to have my adult kids and grandchildren come to visit during our stay. The gas fireplace in the living room was a welcome touch. We also me Lisa & Steve at one point and really enjoyed chatting with them. We would stay here again. The location is also very convenient.

Quaint little apartment

This house was built a long time ago. The apartment is clean. There is plenty of space to sit and relax. I never heard the homeowners although there is a little bit of road noise, nothing crazy. I would stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at Lisa and Steve's place. The guest house was roomy and comfortable. We enjoyed meeting both Lisa and Steve and really appreciated their hospitality. Communications were always easy, quick and thorough. The guest house had several nice touches that made for an enjoyable stay. Off-street parking was great and the rental was close to stores, gas stations and highways.This was our first trip to upstate NY and we would definitely recommend Lisa and Steve's place to others. Thank you, Lisa and Steve, for everything!

I really liked the ambience of the apartment

It is a very nice apartment. Plenty of space to stretch out. Full kitchen, nice bathroom, comfy bed. It ereminded me of my Grandpa's house - nice woodwork, leather sofa, steam heat (which did a great job keeping it warm and it was quiet!). The area it is in had access to everywhere I was going to visit. Its not in the brownstone stockade area but its not far from it and you get good value for it. I would stay here again! Steve was a great host. Very friendly and always responded to outreaches.

Our Views

We were gone visiting family each day we were there, but it was very restful for us during the evenings.We did find it a little odd that neither host made any attemp to contact us the entire time. They also had a sign on their door "Beware of Dog", which seemed intimidating enough for us to stay away. There was no sign of a dog or even an occasional bark.
Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 26 Mar 2025
Im sorry you were intimidated by a sign, and there is no dog. We had a small poodle for 18 years and she passed away last fall. We never took the sign down. Regarding not contacting the guest, we've found over time that many guests don't want to be contacted. They do what they're here to do and they leave. We always leave our phone numbers and a note that says to contact us if they need anything at all. We are welcoming but not intrusive. We also both had the flu and didn't want to risk getting anyone sick, and the guest was contacted on her last day. Suzanne was an wonderful guest and followed all the house rules leaving everything very neat and tidy. I would rent to her and her guest again.
