The apartment is in a great location to access the subway and go for walks in Central Park. My friend and I also appreciated that we each had our own space...although I do think my bed was more comfortable than her sofa bed in the livingroom. The 3 flights of stairs can be a bit of challenge with a load of luggage, but it was a small inconvenience.

Great location!

Space okay. small. Bath/kitchen semi functional. FILTH here and there. NOISEY!! Morning, noon and night. Barking dogs. horns forever! no bureau. no secure internet, after 4 talks w/owner gave up. 4th floor walk-up should be mentioned up front for god's sake. We are in our 70s. Really too much not good to get into. Window AC units allow for grime and noise to intrude. We have made many one week trips to NYC, this was the most expensieve place and saddly the worst one too. Much better can be had for your $..

Loved the location on a quiet street but.close to central park. Bedroom and living room were much bigger than expected. Dining and kitchen Were small, but everything worked. I would stay here Again. If you don’t mind the steps, the best deal in nyc

The apartment itself is good. Ideal for three of us. The location is very good. Good access to the subway, busses and Central Park. The minuses are: it’s on the third floor and no elevator. Two of the three flights of stairs are not even. Although stable, the staircase leans slightly from one side to the other. It is enough to feel it in my knees and hip. A bottle of water I laid on a stair quickly rolled from one side to the other. Another negative point was that the person in the appointment below said that’s our bath was leaking into his room downstairs. I learned of this when a maintenance man came to look at the bathroom. I was then notified by the owner that a repair would be made, but it was not. Later I was visited by the downstairs tenant who was telling me about the problem. Needless to say, these visits left me uncomfortable and hesitant to shower. This is not something I should have had to deal with when renting.

The location of apartment is very good. Conveniently located short walk from the central park yet quiet. Subway station just a short walk away. But apartment is not maintained well and could get better with some tidying up. Photos are very deceiving. Flooring in living room and bathroom needs some repairs. Furniture is very basic quality. VRBO aspects of the rental went very well. Owner/manager Dov was very responsive. If you just need a place to crash at the end of tiring day with reasonable pricing, this place it is. Do not expect "a pleasant spending a day at the apartment" experience here.

Clean, comfortable, quiet, and all amenities. Perfect for a family because both the bedroom and living room doors close, leaving a small but adequate dining and kitchen area to use for an early riser or night owl. Linens, towels, furniture is all basic but totally comfortable. A fine upper west side roost!

Très bien placé, très calme, seul bémol sur le Wifi qui n'est pas stable.

Great place. Close to central park and subways. Perfect size. As stated before..bathroom sink drains slow. Great water pressure. It is a old building. 3 flight stairs..55 steps is true. If you going for 7 days or buy a week subway pass. 33.00 use for subways and busses..unlimited. Great restaurants in walking distance. Enjoy your trip to NYC-this a nice place to stay..all stairs.

We couldn't ask for a better location, 1/2 a block from the subway and Central Park, and just blocks from some great restaurants. The apartment was small, but slept 4 comfortably, and had all the linens, towels and pillows we needed. It was a little rustic and cramped compared to a hotel, but it added to the experience of "living in NYC" for a week. The only downside was the steep stairwell to get to the 3rd-floor-walk-up (55 stairs in all). Overall, it was a great experience and we'd probably do it again!

This place was a decision for my family and I, it is located in the center of the Upper Westside. Just a few blocks to anywhere and a subway ride everywhere. I would definitely recommend staying here if you are planning a trip to NYC. Only cons I can think of is its on the forth floor so you must take 3 flights of stairs and the place could use a little TLC from the maintenance crew (although I am a maintenance man myself so I could be a little critical because it is my expertise) but other than that it is still great place that's a bargain in the area

The location and neighborhood are great. The apartment is amazingly quiet. The person upstairs has heavy feet, runs, and clanks,but he wasn't around too much. The apartment is nice, but sadly suffers from some neglect. It is interesting that the reviews from a few years ago say it is spotless and fully equipped. Now, it is no longer spotless. It is clean enough but not spotless. The bathroom walls could be washed down. There were no garbage bags or napkins. There was no carrot peeler (I donated the one I bought) but there are three bottle openers. The bathroom sink and tub drain very slowly. The freezer drips water into the refrigerator compartment. The towels were washed but stained, and the bathmat was pretty grungy. I bought my own towels. The toilet paper dispenser has no roller. There is no chest or set of drawers to put clothes in. The closet space is good and there were plenty of hangers. So, there are a lot of little things that could easily be taken care of. If they are, I would stay here again.

The location was great (i.e. Community)! Appreciated being able to live like a New Yorker! The unit was semi clean, but corners were dirty and windowsills very dusty. the three long staircases were steep and narrow, making it difficult to navigate with luggage.

pisos por escalera y no lo sabíamos, por lo demás bien.

The three best things that this upper west side apartment has going for it is location, location and location. Not much else except its lower than other NYC rentals price. It is on a relatively quiet street, close to Central Park. The upper west side of Manhattan is a fantastic area to stay. It is easy to get around the city from its location. The neighborhood itself is inviting for exploration. However it is in an old building that is marginally kept up and maintained. If you are open minded about staying in a place with lots of quirks and bare bones furnishings, you will be happy here. There is a moderately comfortable bed and couch, inconsistent hot water and wi-fi, but enough air conditioning and heat - both were needed during my one week stay in weather fickle late April. One must be in good physical shape to get on well here because it is on the fourth floor of a five story walk-up. There is no place to put a suitcase except the floor. There are closets with hangers though and rickety a table and chairs. The tilting stairway and crooked floors set the tone. That being said, the business aspect of renting this apartment went well. Dov was adequately communicative and there were no problems with the VRBO experience. If your priority is to have an upper west side home base while in NYC for a reasonable price and you do not require upscale amenities, then this apartment will do.

We like the location , because of nearness to the Central Park and downtown. What we don' t like is the dilapidated apartment.

We stayed there for 8 nights and we had a very good time. The apartment was equipped with everything you need for your holidays vacations. Excellent location in a very nice neighborhood and the subway it's right on the corner. Quick responds of the owner by email too. Although, the bathroom has a tube right in front of the toilet and that's uncomfortable for a tall man like me, but it's manageable. Also the last 3 days the signal of the Internet went very slow so we could't use some apps of our smartphones. Anyway, overall everything was quite good and we enjoyed our staying there. I would come back.
