JD , Amsterdam, Holland

We stayed here for our second visit to Manhattan. We wanted to experience NYC separate from the standard hotel regime. Rose is a lovely person to work with and really wants your experience renting to be smooth. The location was quite convenient for us. The apt itself is beautiful and the decor details are inspiring. The apt was clean and the financial exchanges were seamless. We recommend this apt to anyone who wants a genuine feel of this city.

A wonderful experience. I would use this apt again and again.
Aziz, Dubai

The apartment was nice and spacious and being in midtown Manhattan made it great for getting to lots of things, ie theatre, Macy's, shopping, parks and other attractions etc. Having all the windows made it nice and bright and had birds eye view of the Gay parade while there. Liked the decor.
Lynne

The apartment is really centrally located, making it easy to get to all the major sights and landmarks in Manhattan. The size is more than adequate for our little family of three, with plenty of room for sleeping, relaxing, cooking and bathing! Plenty of storage space was made available. It has a really chilled out vibe. It is easily accessible with a large working lift and welcome air-conditioning. The building ediface is most attractive. The apartment is clean, cozy, good value and I would highly recommend. It would be impossible to find anywhere quiet in Manhattan, so be prepared for traffic noise wherever you stay, and that's the compromise for such a brilliant location.
Marsha and Peter, Derby, UK

Wow! What a great vacation. And, this wonderful, eclectic, historic jewel of an apartment helped make a wonderful trip to the city even more enjoyable.

What a haven to come home to!!! After busy days of sightseeing I smiled every time I opened the door in to what we came to think of as our little
Shangri-La. While during the day the apartment is filled with natural light, the evenings offer up a super treat of warm rich colors provided by an
assortment of lamps and lanterns. And there you are; bathed in red, amongst the silk pillows and world textiles. Totally Yummy. Slept like babies.
Rebekah Johnson, Portland, OR

The apartment was clean. No dust, no bugs etc. The location is perfect, close to subways etc. The orientation by the staff was helpful and everything was very easy to figure out. The staff was available, courteous, and on call. There was a 15 minute delay upon arrival due to us arriving at 4:30am but we waited in a 24 hour cafe across the street and 15 minutes later, while drinking tea, we were let in. We were grateful they let us check in at that hour. Anything that came up was resolved to our satisfaction. The payment process was easy to execute and no problems. If you enjoy a theme-based decor...Indian/ Moroccan, this is a good choice. We had a great trip...oh yeah...tons of hot water!! That's really great for sequential showers for multiple guests. Thanks, John
